No change to the Plan.

We are instructed by Mr & Mrs J. Evans to make a formal representation with regards to the
above land and the Second Deposit Draft of the Carmarthenshire Replacement Local
Development Plan.

Our client made a formal Candidate Site Submission in August 2018, which was referenced
SR/019/009, seeking the allocation of their land for residential development within the
settlement limits of Capel Iwan as part of the Replacement Local Development Plan.

The Candidate Site comprises part of an equine grazing paddock set off the southern flank
of the minor road that runs north to south from the centre of the village of Capel Iwan. The
proposals seek inclusion of the frontage part of the enclosure to provide a small-scale
development of one detached house to complement established properties which lie directly
opposite, being frontage houses off the western and eastern flanks of the road.

The land therefore clearly represented a logical extension opportunity to the existing
settlement and its extents are illustrated by the red line below at Plan A.
Following due consideration, the Council included the roadside frontage part of the land in
question within the draft settlement limits of Capel Iwan in its First Deposit Draft of the Local
Development Plan, published in January 2020. However, for reasons outlined by the Council
in their current submissions, a revised Second Deposit Local Development Plan has now
been prepared and published in January 2023. It is subject to public consultation.

As part of the current consultation process into the Second Deposit Local Development Plan,
the Council have again published a “Site Assessment Table” (January 2023), which provides
details of the Council’s analysis of each received Candidate Site submission. We note that
our clients’ land was considered as part of this process and as a result the Authority
concluded as follows: “The site is unable to deliver 5 units, however it is appropriate as
small-scale development, and the development limits will be drawn to reflect this.”

Plan B represents an extract of the Second Deposit LDP Proposals Map for Capel Iwan,
clearly now identifying our clients’ field frontage as land within the defined settlement limits:

Our clients therefore welcome and SUPPORT the decision of the Authority to concur with
the representations previously made in relation to our clients’ land.

We can also confirm that the land continues to not face any ecological, flood risk related,
highway, infrastructure or land ownership constraints that would restrict its ability to be
delivered during the Plan period.

We therefore fully support the decision of the Authority to include the land for the purposes
of Residential Development as part of the Carmarthenshire Replacement Local
Development Plan.
