The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee as the visibility splay from the vehicle access crosses a small section of the garden of 91 Ffordd Lligwy, which is owned by the County Council.

The Planning Development Manager reported that the application is a retrospective application for the retention of the extension to the residential curtilage and the retention of a new vehicle access and driveway.  The extension to the curtilage is located to the Southeast of the existing dwelling and used to be a small patch of grassed area between 48 Ffordd Lligwy and 91 Ffordd Lligwy.  The change of use of land into part of the residential curtilage of 48 Ffordd Lligwy has already been carried out on site with part of the land now converted into a driveway and vehicle access onto Ffordd Lligwy.  The area of land measures approximately 95 metres squared with half of the land enclosed by a low wall and the other half to the rear enclosed by a timber fence.  The extension to the curtilage is considered acceptable with the siting located adjacent to the properties gable wall and existing front garden, there remains a patch of grassed land open for pedestrian use between 48 and 91 Ffordd Lligwy to gain access to the rear houses and the small wall and timber fence enclosures have no negative impact on the existing dwelling or neighbouring dwellings in the area.  The new vehicle access and driveway located on the extension of the curtilage have already been carried out on the site.  The vehicle access measures 4.7m wide, has a boundary wall height of 1m in height with the loose stone drive area measuring 8.3m in length and 5.6 wide.  The visibility splay plan provided with the application shows that there is more than 50m of visibility splay to the North and South of the vehicle access.  The visibility splay to the South shown on the visibility splay plan provided crosses over a small part of the garden of 91 Ffordd Lligwy with the garden wall of this property measuring less than 1m in height and is at a lower level than the driveway of the application site.  The Highways Authority has been consulted as part of the application and have raised no objection to the vehicle access or driveway and requested the driveway be bound finished for the first 5m back from the adjoining carriageway and that surface water from the driveway is intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge from or onto the highway with a condition imposed on approval of the application.

The Planning Development Manager said that the retention of the extension to the residential curtilage and the retention of a new vehicle access and driveway is considered acceptable as it would not have a negative impact on the existing site, properties in the area and can be conditioned to reduce any negative impact so as to comply with planning policies.  The recommendation was of approval of the application.

Councillor Robin Williams said that he had received legal advice to declare that he is the Portfolio Member for Finance and Housing Services but has not discussed the application with any Officer within the Authority.

Councillor Kenneth P Hughes 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 within the report.

The application was presented to the Planning and Orders Committee as the County Council owns the land.

The Planning Development Manager reported that the application is made under Section 73 for the variation of condition (09) (Approved plans) of a planning permission FPL/2022/85.  The proposed amendments comprise of the relocation of the approved half-house building some 4.5m to the South; a 4m increase in the length of the bar/refreshment building from 8m to 12m; amendments to the design of the three approved buildings from pitch roofs to mono-pitch roofs and minor amendments to the course layout.  The proposed amendments are considered to be of a relatively minor nature which would not significantly or materially alter the approved development and are therefore considered to be acceptable having regard to the provisions of the Joint Local Development Plan policies.  The recommendation was of approval of the application.

Councillor Geraint Bebb proposed that the application be approved in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.  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 planning conditions within the report.
