DECISION:

 

To approve the introduction of 'no waiting at any time' Double Yellow Lines on a Class 1 Road A4086 – Ffordd Llanberis, Rhosbodrual, Caernarfon

 

DECISION: To approve the application contrary to the recommendation. Consequently, the application will be referred to a cooling-off period before being returned to the Committee for a final decision.

 

APPLICATION WITHDRAWN

 

DECISION: TO REFUSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECOMMENDATION.

 

REASONS:

 

1.    Based on the information submitted, the Local Planning Authority is not entirely convinced that there is a real need, proven beyond doubt, to erect an agricultural building of the size and scale proposed at this location. Therefore, the application is contrary to the requirements of policies PCYFF 1 and PCYFF 2 of the Anglesey and Gwynedd Joint Local Development Plan 2017 which encourages the refusal of proposals outside development boundaries unless there is justification to show that its location in the countryside is essential, and that do not comply with other policies within the Plan itself.

 

2.    The scale of the proposal would mean erecting a substantial building which would be located in a prominent, isolated position near a public road and footpath and within a Special Landscape Area. This development would not respect the context of the site and its place in the local landscape and, as a result, the development would be harmful to the area's visual amenities. The application is therefore contrary to the criteria of policies PCYFF 2, PCYFF 3 and AMG 2 of the Anglesey and Gwynedd Joint Local Development Plan, 2017 together with the advice contained within Technical Advice Note 6: Planning for Sustainable Rural Communities and Technical Advice Note 12: Design that relates to protecting local visual amenities and the environment.

 

 

DECISION: To approve contrary to the recommendation

 

1.    The development referred to in this permission must be commenced no later than FIVE years of the date of the permission.

2.    The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in strict conformity with the details shown on the plan(s) numbered 80 1 - 22 - 0 5; 801 - 22 - 70; 22/115/P 09; 22/115/P 04 a 22/115/P 03 Amendment A submitted to the Local Planning Authority, and contained in the application form and in any other documents accompanying the application, unless condition(s) to revise them is/are included on this planning decision.

5.    The scheme for planting a mixed thorn hedgerow contained in plan number 22/115/P 03 Amendment A must be completed during the first planting season after the use becomes operational.

Notes

 

1.    Due to the size and nature of the development it will be necessary to provide an application to the Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) Approval Body for permission prior to the commencement of the building work. These systems must be approved by Cyngor Gwynedd in its role as the Sustainable Drainage Systems Approval Body prior to the building work commencing.

 

2.    The applicant's attention is drawn to the letter from Welsh Water dated 24/02/23 and the need to ensure that the development complies with the advice contained therein.  The letter can be viewed under this application’s reference number on the track and trace pages on the Council’s website.

 

3.    NOTE: The road verge in front of the access must be reinforced with 125 x 150mm low kerbs installed in accordance with 'Road Design'.

 

4.    NOTE: The Highways Agency shall not be responsible for any surface water from the road that enters the premises as a result of the development.

 

5.    NOTE: The applicant is instructed to write to the Highways Authority to be granted permission under Section 278 of the Highways Act, 1980 to undertake any work which entails changes to the existing road in order to create an access to the site.

 

6.    NOTE: Surface water from the site curtilage should not flow to the main road. The highway drainage by the access and along the frontage must be completed to meet the requirements of the Local Planning Authority before any work is commenced on the rest of the development.
