Extend existing touring caravan site and increase the number of touring
caravans from 11 to 22.
(a) The
Development Control Officer elaborated on the background of the application and
noted that the application site was located in the countryside and within the
Landscape Conservation Area. Although
the site or parts of the site were visible from higher areas further away, it
was not considered that the proposal of extending the site in terms of its
surface area and numbers was likely to cause an obtrusive and prominent feature
in the landscape.
Attention was drawn to the fact that the
site was located approximately 225 metres from the Llŷn
Fens Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and the Cors Hirdre Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It was noted
that observations had been received from Natural Resources Wales about the
proposal and these observations considered that the development, because of its
nature, was unlikely to effect the features,
ecological integrity or the practicality of any statutory sites of ecological,
geological and/or geomorphological interest.
The development was acceptable in terms of relevant
local and national policies for the reasons noted in the report.
(b) The local member (a member of this Planning Committee) supported
the application and noted that the site was suitable for the number requested
and that the caravan site was being managed responsibly.
RESOLVED to approve
the application.
Conditions:
1. Commencement within five years.
2. In accordance with submitted
plans.
3. The number of touring units on the site at
