Include site within development limits in the Plan.

This representation objects to the exclusion of this site from the development
limits for Capel Dewi – a designated Tier 3 Sustainable Village. The inclusion of
this site within new development limits for this part of Capel Dewi would
reflect similar such ‘outliers’ elsewhere in Carmarthenshire.
The designation of development limits around this cluster of dwellings would
provide recognition and certainty for this section of Capel Dewi which has seen
incremental development over the years. This section of the village has grown
in similar fashion to the main section and its lack of development limits has
not protected the adjacent countryside from development.
Designating the proposed development limits will both afford control and the
opportunity for appropriate development in this sustainable Tier 3 village.
The site’s inclusion would not lead to additional environmental pressure, but
instead will lead to the fostering of sustainable growth and allow for a wider
choice of housing type.
Its development would be in keeping and in character with the settlement and
will ensure a readily deliverable source of future housing for this sustainable
community.
In addition, residential development at this location:-
· would not be detrimental to the amenity of adjacent properties;
· would satisfy recognised housing and sustainability objectives;
· would not have a detrimental impact on the landscape or nature conservation interests.
Furthermore, the site is not impeded by any access, ground condition, flood
risk, hydrological, ecological, archaeological or land ownership related
constraints and its short term delivery is assured.
It is considered that this site is sustainable and readily deliverable and offers a
valuable development option within this Tier 3 Sustainable Village.
The inclusion of this land within designated development limits would be fully
supported.
