Regarding the strategy itself i base my comments largely on the sites proposed in the Llangennech ward.

I fully support the development of disused and brown field sites and the small sites in the ward wold be ideal for development. Regarding the greenfield sites i feel this is not acceptable for development. The county has so much old industrial land there is little need for using green fields. Furthermore Llangennech is not ideally situated to local jobs, it is a commuter area and as part of the strategy is to reduce car journeys these sites are not compatible at all.
Furthermore the current infrastructure is overloaded, J48 of the m4 is already lethal at peak times with cars backed up on the hard shoulder. The by pass is also very busy.

I feel the priority across the county must be to develop redundant or old industrial land initially and also top priority should be to get the many disused houses in the county back into use. One of the county's great attractions is its 'Greenness' and a place to escape and this is very imortant for tourism and other industries. This must be preserved as much as possible to help the prosperity of the County
