12.1 LBC/2021/29 – Listed Building Consent for the refurbishment of the male and female toilets at Haulfre Gardens Unit, Haulfre, Llangoed 

The application was reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as it relates to land in the Council’s ownership.

The Planning Built and Natural Environment Manager reported that the proposal is for listed building consent for internal alterations for the refurbishment of the male and female toilets at the Haulfre Gardens Unit. The proposals as described in the report have been carefully considered and would not harm the character of the listed building and would be easily reversible without causing harm to the historic fabric, should circumstances change in future. The recommendation is therefore to approve the application subject to conditions and subject also to amending the wording of condition (02) to reflect the fact that the application is for listed building consent, rather than planning consent.

Councillor Alun Roberts speaking as a Local Member said that he welcomed the proposal and that he and the local community hoped that the proposed alterations would lead to increased and better use of Haulfre Gardens as a significant and historically valuable resource.

Councillor John Griffith proposed, seconded by Councillor Trefor Lloyd Hughes, MBE that the application be approved in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.

It was resolved to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation and report subject to the conditions set out therein and to amending the wording of condition (02) as outlined.

1.2         FPL/2021/196 – Full application for the erection of new structure to provide a roof over the existing farmyard manure store at Fron Heulog, Cemaes

The application was reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as the application site is Council owned land.

The Development Management Manager reported that the proposal is to improve the existing slurry management system on the farm to conform with the requirements of the Water Resources (Control of Agricultural Pollution) (Wales) Regulations 2021. The structure is not to accommodate an increase in stock numbers. He confirmed that having considered the proposal against the relevant policies of the Joint Local Development Plan as outlined within the report, it is the Officer’s view that it is acceptable in terms of siting and design and is not considered to be of a scale that would have a significant detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the area or upon the amenities of nearby residential occupiers. The recommendation is therefore one of approval.

Councillor Kenneth Hughes proposed, seconded by Councillor Eric Jones, that the application be approved in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.

It was resolved to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation and report subject to the conditions set out therein.

12.3     FPL/2021/178 – Full application for the erection of 7 business units together with landscaping and associated development at Former Heliport Site, Penrhos Industrial Estate, Penrhos, Holyhead 

The application was reported to the Planning and Orders Committee as it submitted on behalf of the Authority.

The Development Management Manager outlined the main planning considerations in connection with the application based on the principle of development; the impact of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; its effect upon the amenities of neighbouring properties and highway safety. Having thus assessed the proposal, it is the Officer’s view that the principle of the development aligns with both national planning policy and the Joint Local Development Plan. The proposal is considered acceptable in technical terms and there will be no resulting harm to the amenities of the locality nor the nearby Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The recommendation is therefore to approve the application.

Councillor Glyn Haynes, speaking as a Local Member welcomed the proposal as one that could bring additional jobs to the area and as being in keeping with the  surrounding units which are all of high quality. He proposed, seconded by Councillor Trefor Lloyd Hughes, MBE that the application be approved in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.

It was resolved to approve the application in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation and report subject to the conditions set out therein.
