Minutes:

7.1 FPL/2023/61 – Full application for the change of use of agricultural land into holiday lodge site, siting 13 holiday lodges, construction of new road on site, alterations to existing vehicular access together with soft and hard landscaping on land at Taldrwst, Lôn Fain, Dwyran

 

The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee at the request of a Local Member. At its meeting held on 1 November 2023, the committee resolved to conduct a physical site visit which subsequently took place on 15 November 2023.At its meeting held on 6 December 2023 the committee resolved to refuse the application contrary to the Officer’s recommendation on the grounds that insufficient drainage information had been received to allow members to come to a decision.

 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the applicant has submitted a SuDS application to the Local Authority as the SuDS Approval Body which is being assessed the committee having deferred the application until the outcome of that process. There is also an ongoing publicity period until the 20 May 2024 by virtue of the receipt of the additional drainage information. As the two Local Members are unable to attend today’s meeting, they have requested a further deferral in order to be able to present the community’s concerns regarding this application when it is considered. Given the ongoing publicity process and given that the SAB application is yet to be determined, Officers consider that the request to defer is reasonable and consequently it is recommended that the application be deferred until the committee’s June meeting. However the Planning Authority is not willing to defer the application beyond the June meeting as it considers that sufficient time has passed for the applicant to gain SAB approval. The application lies outside the SAB approval process and a decision regarding it needs to be made.

 

Councillor Robin Williams, seconded by Councillor Geraint Bebb, proposed that the application be deferred on the grounds specified by the Officer.

 

It was resolved to defer consideration of the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation for the reasons given.
