Minutes:

 7.1  HHP/2024/169 – Full application for the erection of an ancillary annexe at The Old Crown, Moelfre

 

The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee at the request of a Local Member, as it is considered that the development would have a negative visual impact.  At its meeting on the 7 May, 2025 the committee resolved to undertake a site visit, and this subsequently took place on 21 May, 2025.

 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the existing dwelling is a two-storey terraced property located within the development boundary of Moelfre and is also located within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  The proposal consists of erecting an ancillary annexe to be situated to the rear of the existing dwelling.  As was viewed during the site visit, the site has different topographical levels, therefore the site is on an upward gradient from the main road, and the annexe will be situated in an elevated position at the top of the site adjacent to Lôn Ty Powder overlooking the Moelfre coast.  There is an extant permission to erect a dwelling on the same footprint as the proposed annexe, which has been safeguarded through a lawful use planning permission in 2023.  The annex will be smaller in size than the previously approved application.  The proposed development demonstrates high quality design and complements and enhances the character and appearance of the site.  It is not considered that the proposal will harm the special qualities of the landscape, the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, or any neighbouring properties.  The extant planning permission for a dwelling has a greater visual impact on the landscape in comparison to the proposed annexe.  The Highways Authority has requested that parking arrangements were to be provided due to the annexe proposing 3 bedrooms.  These bedrooms would result in 3 additional spaces being created in addition to the 3 existing parking spaces in relation to the existing dwelling and the holiday accommodation associated with the site.  Whilst it can be shown that sufficient parking for the proposal can be accommodated within the curtilage of the site, further details were requested in respect of the usability of the bays.  A Swept Pat Analysis was submitted to alleviate the concerns of the Highways Authority, and the information provided was acceptable.  Welsh Water have requested a condition stating no surface water shall be allowed to drain directly or indirectly into the public sewerage system.  In addition to this condition, another condition will be implemented as part of the decision stating prior to the commencement of work on site, full details of how surface water will be discharged within the site shall be submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority.  He further noted that usually surface water matters are the responsibility of SAB, however as Welsh Water has specifically requested that the surface water does not connect to the main sewer a condition of any approval of the application has been imposed to ensure that the information is  ...  view the full minutes text for item 7
