Minutes:

12.1    19C845H – Full application for the siting of a Porto cabin on the site for use as a football club merchandise shop at Holyhead Hotspurs, Holyhead

 

The application is reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as the land on which it is made is owned by the Council.

 

Councillor Raymond Jones proposed that the application be approved and the proposal was seconded by Councillor Nicola Roberts.

 

It was resolved to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation subject to the condition set out in the written report.

 

12.2    19C587C – Full application for the erection of 1 bungalow and 2 semi-detached dwellings together with the formation of a vehicular access on land adjacent to Parc Felin Dwr, Holyhead

 

The application is reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as it has been called in by a Local Member.

 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the application site is located within the development boundary of Holyhead as designated under Policy 49 of the Local Plan.

He asked the Committee to refuse the application as presented in favour of amending the scheme to allow the erection of two bungalows which would sit better within the confines of the plot.

 

The Committee sought clarification of the plot site relative to the playing field and the neighbouring properties as well as the distance between the playing field and the proposed development.

 

The Committee was shown illustrations of the plot area and how the proposal would sit within the area. The Planning Development Manager confirmed that the plot remains the same in size and that the only change is that the application is now for a bungalow and a pair of semi-detached two storey units where previously it had been for two pairs of semi-detached two storey units. All the housing in the immediate area overlooks the playing field.  In response to a question whether there is a sufficient buffer between the plot and the playing field, the Officer said that from the  ...  view the full minutes text for item 12
