Minutes:

10.1   13C141B – Full application for the erection of 3 pairs of semi-detached dwellings on land at Llain y Delyn, Bodedern

 

The application has been presented to Committee as the site is allocated under Policy 14 and 38 of the Ynys Môn Local Plan. The application constitutes a departure from this allocation.

 

The Planning Development Manager reported that the proposal was within the development boundary of Bodedern, and had been earmarked for a bowling green in 1996.  Over the years, half of the field has disappeared and been used for development, and the remaining land is suitable for building. The Council’s Rural Housing Officer has confirmed there is a need for this type of housing in the Bodedern area.

 

Councillor Ken Hughes as a Local Member supported the application subject to a Section 106 agreement with provision attached to the application for affordable housing.

 

Councillor John Griffith, as a Local Member raised the issue of sewerage problems in Bron y Graig.

 

Councillor Ken Hughes proposed that the application be approved and Councillor John Griffith seconded the proposal.

 

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

 

10.2   30C759 - Full application for the erection of a new dwelling on land adjacent to Fairacre, Benllech

 

The application has been presented to the Planning and Orders Committee because it is a departure from the Unitary Development Plan.

 

Councillor Richard Owain Jones proposed that the application be approved and Councillor Lewis Davies seconded the proposal.

 

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

 

10.3   31C134E – Full application for the erection of 5 dwellings together with the construction of a vehicular access on land adjacent to Cae Cyd, Llanfairpwll

 

The application was presented to the Committee as an application contrary to the adopted Ynys Môn Local Plan, but that can be supported under the Stopped Unitary Development Plan.

 

The Planning Development Manager stated that a similar application for outline planning permission was brought before the Committee in May and permission was granted.  He stated that this proposal was for a full application, whereas previously it was a departure application, and was outside the development boundary of the Local Development Plan, but within the boundary of the Unitary Development Plan. He went on to explain that as a full application, it is treated as a new application, and therefore has to be dealt with as such. He referred to the Planning Committee in May, when the application was for approving 5 houses. The only difference now is the appearance of the houses and how they fit in to the application site.

 

Councillor Meirion Jones, as a Local Member stated that some of these new dwellings overlook the houses within the vicinity.

 

The Planning Development Manager referred to the assessment in the outline application and again in this application. The nearest property at Cae Cyd is close, and the Planning Officer has noted and dealt with the matter: there were no windows overlooking the house next door, and the proposal will not harm the amenities currently enjoyed by the occupants. No objections have been received from the neighbours.

 

The Local Member, Councillor Alun Mummery reported that the Community Council had raised the issue of a roundabout at the access into the site, which would require further discussion by Highways Officers.

 

Councillor Ken Hughes proposed that the application be approved and Councillor Victor Hughes seconded the proposal.

 

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