The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee as the proposal is contrary to policies of the Joint Local Development Plan but which the Local Planning Authority is minded to approve. 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the proposal entails the removal of conditions as part of the planning permission reference 33C284A approved in 2013.  She noted that the 3 dwellings are now similar in size and context compared to the previous approved application as one dwelling was larger than the other two dwelling.  Due to the reduction in size of the dwellings the application site is smaller in context, it is no longer necessary to remove the existing stone wall to the south west of the application site or re-divert the footway near the site.    The Planning Development Manager further said that under the approved Joint Local Development Plan, Pentre Berw is identified as a cluster where housing proposals can only be supported for affordable housing for local need between or adjacent to buildings.  This application does not comply with the requirements of Policy TAI6 as the dwellings are open market dwellings.  However, as the application site has an extant planning permission the recommendation is of approval.

Councillor Vaughan Hughes proposed that the application be approved and Councillor Bryan Owen seconded the proposal.

It was RESOLVED to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation subject to the conditions contained within the written report.
