10.1  FPL/2023/359 – Full application for amended plans for the erection of a dwelling previously approved under planning permission reference FPL/2021/47 on land adjacent to Pen Bryn, Rhosmeirch

The application was reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as the proposal is contrary to planning policies of the Joint Local Development Plan which the Local Planning Authority is minded to approve.

The Planning Development Manager reported that the application is made for amended plans for the erection of a dwelling previously approved under planning permission reference FPL/2021/47.  In October 2023 a Lawful Development Certificate was granted under reference LUE/2023/23 which established that a lawful material start had been made on the development thereby safeguarding the planning permission in perpetuity.  The proposed amendments includes the siting of the dwelling, site boundaries, design and means of access to the site.  The proposed dwelling will be re-sited centrally within the plot and the access relocated from the northern to the southern corner of the site.  There are also amendments to the design from a red brick dormer bungalow with attached double garage to a two-storey facing brick and painted render dwelling with attached single garage.   The proposed amendments are acceptable in terms of scale, siting, and are considered to be of a higher quality and an improvement to the previously approved scheme and will be in keeping with the general dwellings nearby.  The Highways Authority have been consulted in relation to the revised matters of access and have raised no objections.  The proposal also includes biodiversity improvements with new planting and landscaping and the erection of bat and bird boxes on the gable-end of the dwelling.

Councillor Robin Williams proposed that the application be approved in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.  Councillor Jackie Lewis seconded the proposal of approval.

It was RESOLVED to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation subject to the planning conditions contained within the written report.
