No change to the Plan.

We are instructed by Moelfre Developments Limited to make a formal representation with
regards to the above land and the Second Deposit Draft of the Carmarthenshire
Replacement Local Development Plan.

Our clients made a formal Candidate Site Submission in August 2018, which was referenced
SR/145/010, seeking the allocation of their land for residential development within the
settlement limits of Rhydargaeau as part of the Replacement Local Development Plan.

The Candidate Site comprises part of an undulated former grazing field which shares part of
a long northern perimeter with residential properties which front the southern flank of Bro
Helyg in Rhydargaeau. The actual enclosure itself lies adjoining a completed second phase
of 11 detached and semi-detached houses, which themselves are a cul-de-sac further phase
of the Clos-y-Dderwen residential scheme off Dan-y-Dderwen. An initial phase of 12 modern
dwellinghouses has also been completed in recent years. The proposals seek inclusion of
the eastern part of the well-defined enclosure to provide a third and final phase of
development which will complete the development of the entire field.

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 land in question as a Residential
Allocation 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: “Site to be allocated for
residential use with reference SuV14/h1.”

As a result of the above, Plan B represents an extract of the Deposit LDP Proposals Map for
Rhydargaeau, clearly now identifying our clients land as a Residential Allocation (shaded
brown) within the defined settlement limits:

Plan B – Extract from part of the Proposals Map for Rhydargaeau

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. The Council will have noted that our client’s’ completion of all 23 dwellinghouses at Phases 1 and 2 at the site demonstrates the high level of deliverability that should be afforded to this proposed residential allocation. Upon adoption of the new LDP, out client will be seeking full planning permission, with a view to commencing work in the first year of the new Plan Period.

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