Minutes:

11.1    13C194 – Outline application for the erection of three affordable dwellings which includes details of access, appearance, layout and scale on land opposite Llwyn Llinos, Bodedern

 

The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee as the applicant is related to a relevant officer. The application file and report have been reviewed by the Monitoring Officer as required by the Council’s Constitution.

 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the original outline application with all matters reserved was for the development of three houses as an exception site for affordable housing. The amended application proposes three bungalows on part of a field enclosure filling a gap between the existing cemetery and the adjoining bungalow at Rhoslyn.Three letters of objection were received in relation to the originally submitted proposal; no additional representations have been received since the re-issuing of publicity on receipt of the amended details. The Housing Service has confirmed the need for three two bedroom bungalows in Bodedern and the scheme reflects this need in terms of design and affordability. The Highways Authority recommends conditional approval including the provision of a pavement along the frontage of the site. The scheme is considered acceptable in policy terms and is recommended for approval subject to the receipt of satisfactory drainage details and a Section 106 agreement to secure the dwellings as affordable dwellings in perpetuity.

 

The Committee sought clarification of whether a traffic survey had been conducted as this area of the village is considered to be a very busy area. The Highways Officer confirmed that whilst no traffic survey has been carried out, the Highways Authority has insisted on the highest possible standards in relation to speed limits with which the proposal complies. Highway Officers are now also satisfied with the level of visibility with the original access having been moved to provide a 90m visibility splay in both directions.

 

Councillor Lewis Davies proposed that the application be approved and the proposal was seconded by Councillor Kenneth Hughes.

 

It was resolved to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation subject to the conditions listed in the written report and the receipt of satisfactory drainage details and also, a Section 106 agreement to secure the dwellings as affordable dwellings in perpetuity.
