Amend Plan to include the site

This representation comprises an objection to the exclusion of this site from
the development limits for Llanelli. This area of land is proposed for a mixed
use, including an education/research/employment opportunity for this Tier 1
Principal Centre. Other similar and appropriate uses can be accommodated at
this strategic gateway site. Community focussed development is desirable,
with sustainability an important element.
Placemaking will be a prime consideration with green and blue infrastructure
being factored into any final scheme. Part of the site is subject of a previous
permission for a solar park, which would deliver the desired low carbon energy
for the development.
A key deliverability factor is the adjacent B4304 Llanelli Relief Road with the
necessary access readily available from the existing roundabout. Furthermore,
this established infrastructure link would facilitate ties between the proposed
education/research/employment mixed use and the nearby Pentre Awel
Wellness and Life Science Village.
The site’s development would not lead to additional environmental pressure,
but instead will foster sustainable growth and allow for a low carbon integrated
development.
Its development would be in keeping and in character with other key sites in
this emerging part of Llanelli and a high quality scheme will engender
significant visual and amenity improvements at this gateway to the Llanelli
coastal zone.
In addition, the proposed scheme at this location:-would not be detrimental to the amenity of adjacent properties;
· would satisfy recognised sustainability objectives;
· would not have a detrimental impact on the landscape or nature
conservation interests.
Furthermore, the site’s delivery is assured. It is not impeded by any access,
ground condition, flood risk, hydrological, ecological, archaeological or land
ownership related constraints, in similar fashion to other developments in this
area.
The inclusion of this land within revised development limits would be fully
supported.
