Public Speakers

 

Dr Sion Morris Williams, objecting to the application, said that he was representing his family, friends and the public who use this road often to Ynys Wen from the main road the B4419.   He said that his father is the third generation to farm Ynys Wen since its creation in 1918 after his great grandfather returned from the War and started a tenancy at Ynys Wen through Anglesey Council. In the future, he hopes to be able to take over and be the fourth generation at Ynys Wen. Dr Morris Williams further said that the road from the main road, the B4419, to Ynys Wen now serves 3 properties; Chwarelau Farm, Tŷ Fron Goch and Ynys Wen Farm. In the early 1970s this road was adopted by Anglesey Council following an agreement with the former owner of Chwarelau Farm, Mr John Jones. The road was in a poor condition at the time and served two Council farms which were Ynys Wen and Fron Goch as well as the first Farm (Private farm) that we first come to on the road, which is Chwarelau. The whole road was laid with tarmac by the Council and has been maintained since then which is over fifty years.   He noted that as a family they object to this planning application based on safety. There are 3 parts of the planning application which cause us concern and which relate to public and highway safety (the road to Ynys Wen from the B4419). Vehicles, heavy agricultural machinery, delivery vehicles and walkers use this road on a daily basis. The passing bay has now been created and is located in the wrong place, very dangerous and on a sharp corner which is not the same material as the road. He refer to the location plan of the planning application FPL/2019/212, the passing bay was located in a safe and suitable place and was in line with condition number 6 which allowed the application to be approved ‘In line with highway safety’. It was located on a straight section of the road between the B4419 and Chwarelau, with clear visibility for a vehicle to be able to pull in safely if traffic was coming from the other direction. He was not aware of another passing place on such a dangerous corner as this, but he was aware of a number of passing bays on straight sections of  ...  view the full minutes text for item 7.

10.1     – FPL/2021/243 - Ty Ni, Plot 1 Glan Llyn, Cerrigman, Amlwch

            FPL/2021/243

Additional documents:

Minutes:

10.1       FPL/2021/243 – Full application for amended plans for the erection of a dwelling previously approved under planning permission reference 24C268/DA at Ty Ni, Plot 1, Glan Llyn, Cerrigman, Amlwch

 

The application was presented 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 outline planning permission was originally granted for the development of this plot in September 2018, the application was subsequently renewed twice in 2011 and 2015 and reserved matters approval was granted in March 2018 under reference 24C268J/DA.  The development has commenced and is at an advanced state of construction.  The development which is being undertaken is that which forms the subject of this application i.e. it includes the rear sun room and detached garage which did not form part of the original reserved matters approval.  Notwithstanding that the development being constructed includes the sun room and garage, it otherwise accords with the original approved plans.  Consequently, it is considered that the approved development has been implemented and constitutes a valid fallback position.  The application is contrary to Policy TAI 6 of the Joint Local Development Plan, nevertheless a fallback position exists as the site benefits from an extant permission which has been implemented with the dwelling now being at an advanced state of construction.  The recommendation was of approval of the application.

 

Councillor Liz Wood proposed that the application be approved and Councillor Robin Williams seconded the proposal of approval.

 

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