 7.1  FPL/2021/349 – Full application for the creation of a private equestrian ménage together with the change of use of agricultural land into an all year camping site at Caerau, Llanfairynghornwy

The application was reported to the Planning and Orders Committee at the request of a Local Member who expressed concern that the scheme would be tantamount to overdevelopment of the site.  At its meeting held on 15 June, 2022 the Committee resolved to visit the site.  A virtual site visit was subsequently conducted on 29 June, 2022.  At the meeting held on 6 July, 2022, members resolved to defer the application to allow the Officers to revisit the application and to make comparisons to application FPL/2019/22.

Public Speaker

Mr Marc Whyatt, in support of the application, said that some comments that were made by the objectors to the application were factually incorrect, misleading and confusing. He would like the opportunity to settle any confusion and uncertainty that may have been caused by these comments that could have inadvertently lead to the wrong decision being made. He hoped that enough time has now been given for the committee members to make a professional justified decision from a planning perspective. The application was first submitted back in October of last year, 9 months ago, and we have been working closely with the council to satisfy any areas of concern. Prior to the application, we constructed 2 passing bays on the road which have since been approved, accepted and adopted by the council – this was part of a previous application.

Councillor Llinos Medi raised a concern about the level of traffic from previous applications that have not yet been developed. Being a family with small children that attend the local Welsh schools and use the local roads, the traffic levels are also a concern to us. He confirmed that the satisfactory traffic survey actually included all of the previous applications as a collective volume of traffic – not just for the campsite. In the previous Committee meeting on 6th July, the planning application was said to be a “carbon copy” of a recently rejected application leading to the idea that this application should also be rejected on the same grounds. The planning application which was used is not comparable to the development. Unlike application FPL/2019/223, their development was considered by the relevant authorities and documented in professional reports satisfying that it does not propose any harm to the AONB. The report was compiled by the Senior Planning Officer and the Senior Landscape and Tree Officer. Application FPL/2019/223 was also rejected because of the negative impact on the residential properties facing and in close proximity to the development. Once again, our development is not comparable as we do not have any residential properties in close proximity to our  ...  view the full minutes text for item 7
