Having seen the proposed plans and with the traffic problems in Old Colwyn I feel that with the increase in vehicle the parking would become a big problem. The car parking at the present car park is a big problem. The residents in Victoria Road cannot find a space for their own cars.
Concern with drainage etc.
Local schools are full as is the surgery.
The Welsh Language is already being threatened.
Hope the incomers will not be using these premises as second homes.

Noted - The concerns are recognised and will be addressed through various measures put in place during the planning process, for example following the recommendations of Transport Assessments as agreed with the Council's Highways officers, the provision of monies from developers towards schools where this is needed and land for a satellite surgery subject to the Healthboard's needs. The Health Board have been consulted. Any drainage issues will need to be resolved to the satisfaction of NRW and CCBC's Environment officers. Comments from the Biodiversity and Countryside officer will be taken into account at the development brief/pre-planning application stage, but we will work on the principles of retaining as many natural features of the site as possible, e.g. Trees, hedgerows etc.
