No change to the Plan. This representation is mainly in response to the planning application for 86 dwellings.

I have lived in Lon Rhys Llandeilo for over eight years now and I note with some concern the proposed POBL housing development on land accessed via Parc Pencrug.
I gather this will be a development of approx 86 homes which will be offered for sale, rent and shared ownership.
Whilst I agree in principal with the pressing need for more homes, there are certain questions one must ask regarding in particular, volume and access.
The numbers proposed are wildly out of proportion to the previous rate of growth of the town, and I suggest would create a serious imbalance between the facilities / public services available
and the newly increased population.

The access proposed is in my opinion quite unrealistic. The steep hill down through Parc Pencrug is a bad hill at the best of times and in winter weather can be lethal.
The very idea of heavy construction traffic moving up and down that stretch over an extended period of time,
followed by the permanent comings and goings of the occupants of almost 100 homes severely stretches the imagination.

In summary, I am in agreement with the principal of providing much needed additional homes, but the number proposed is quite unsuitable and given the extremely poor access
I have to conclude that unless an alternative route can by found via Rhosmaen Street or the A40 I must oppose this development in its present form.
