PrC3/h19

Remove site from the plan

Gwernego Home Limited (“the company”) was incorporated to and subsequently undertook
residential developments principally in the village of Llandybie.

These sites were substantially completed and the company has been dormant for over thirty
years. it has been left holding the two parcels of land at Tanylan and Caeffynnon shown
respectively on the plans attached to the applications now made for the inclusion of parts of
those sites in the current version of the Local Development Plan.

The sites have no current use. it is highly unlikely that the company will ever trade again.
The applications are made on the following basis:

1. The company proposes that three or four prOperties should be constructed off what
is the existinghammerhead at Tanylan.

2. The company proposes that a single preperty should be constructed at Caeffynnon.

3. in each case the development suggested would amount to infill literally between the
existing properties.

4. The remaining land at both sites could become useful amenity land attached to the
new or any of the existing properties.

5. The proposal would effectively ’finish of? the developments and put the residual
land to good use.

6. The company wishes to work cooperatively with the local authority and is open to its
informed guidance as to how this land can be put to best use for the benefit of all
concerned.

Change to Plan if necessary

Thank you for consulting Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru/National Resources Wales (NRW) on the above, which was received on 17 February 2023.

We welcome the opportunity to provide comments on your Second Deposit Revised
LDP.

We support the intent of the plan’s policies and proposals to enable the delivery of sustainable development and ensure social, economic, environmental and cultural
well-being goals are all suitably balanced in the decision-making process, so the right development occurs in the right place.

We also acknowledge that you have taken on board advice from our previous correspondence which has enabled positive provisions in the second Deposit Plan
both in policy terms and regarding allocation of sites. However, there are issues with the latest draft which we feel challenge the Soundness of the Plan. These key
issues are highlighted below:
• SAC rivers / Habitats Regulations Assessment (HRA)
• Flood risk regarding the following sites allocated for housing under Strategic Policy 4: A Sustainable Approach to Providing New Homes
PrC3/h33 Llys Dolgader
PrC3/h19 Land off Llys y Nant
SeC19/h1 Land at Park View, Whitland
Sec19/h2 Land at Whitland Creamery
• Flood risk regarding allocation - PrC2/GT1 – Land at Penyfan, Trostre, Llanelli, under Strategic Policy SP 10: Gypsy and Traveller provision.
• Biodiversity and ecosystem resilience regarding six allocations (two housing and four employment).
In addition, to matters of soundness we also advise that some refining/clarity be made to the plan in respect of several policies and supporting text to ensure the
robustness of the plan.

Our detailed comments on the plan and supporting documents can be found in the annexes to this letter.

Please note that our comments are without prejudice to any comments we may wish to make when consulted on any subsequent formal planning application submissions
to develop any of the land identified within the plan. At the time of any other consultation there may be new information available which we will need to consider
in providing our formal advice.

Finally, we look forward to continuing to work closely with you to progress the plan and trust these comments are of assistance. If you have any queries, or if you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at the above address.
