Pembrey and Burry Port Town Council wishes to express its deepest objections regarding the density of the proposed properties. We wish to express our concern about how the existing infrastructure and services will cope with the additional population. We reserve the right to issue a detailed objection should the sites listed be included in the Local Development Plan.

Already Issues with flooding , Sewage and traffic in the area. Any further houses would lead to flooding and hence a compensation claim.

This will create an increase in traffic on the A484 which is the 2nd busiest road in the county. There are lengthy delays daily due to the development on Sandy Road since the construction of hundreds of houses in the area.
There are already drainage problems which have been a long standing problem.
Di-spite a new school being build in the village it will not be adequate to offer places for such an increase in population.
With one surgery in Burry Port which is already under pressure. Therefore many Pembrey residents have to travel to Kidwelly for a doctor's appointment.

Concern regarding increase in volume of traffic using A484, and knock-on effects.
Especially worried about increase in traffic using Mountain Road to avoid congestion problems on A484.
Mountain Road is in no way capable of carrying more traffic. The increase already over the past few years has resulted in this road becoming extremely dangerous, with the occurrence of accidents and many 'near misses'.

My objection is based on the increased risk of flooding, increase in volume of traffic, loss of habitat for wildlife including bats and voles and due to the lack of amenities to cope with the increase in population- specifically gp services which are unable to cope at the present, school places, etc. There are other sites in the area which are much more appropriate for development, this is not appropriate.

My opposition is based upon the following concerns:
1. Traffic dangers
2. Surface water flooding issues and sewerage
3. Listed building consideration - Cwrt Farm is currently a Grade 11*listed building.
4. Impact on local infrastructure, amenities and local communities - Doctor / dental surgeries and schools are at full capacity without the extra burden that this and other developments could bring.
5. Welsh Language and culture
6. Visual impact
7. Loss of habitat and hedgerows

The A484 is already seriously congested with large queues forming every morning/evening.
Pembrey is a tourist area and promoted as such by Carmarthenshire County Council (Country Park, Cefn Sidan beach, Race Track, etc) and heavy traffic/congestion will put visitors off.
Pembrey Mountain is a haven for wildlife and these must be catered for and protected.
Flooding is a real risk for local residents.

1. Traffic. Garreg Lwyd site road is totally inadequate to accommodate the extra vehicle use. Together with SR/016/016, will cause traffic GRID-LOCK on this estate and access off the A 484.
2. Drainage. No local stream or river to accommodate surface water run-off. Only the 'canal' which already is at capacity and additional input could cause flooding elsewhere in Pembrey.
3. Infrastructure. No free capacity at local school. No spare capacity at local surgery.
4. Is outside the government response time for attendance of fire appliances as previously stated to the Town Council by the Fire Chief for the area.

this site will be a low level site and should be seen in preference to Cwrt Farm site SS/16/003.
If Court Farm site proceeds this site is dead

This piggy backs onto an existing development and is in keeping with the size of development and the village. The only concern would be that the proposed road that links the development to the main road is poor for the proposed increase in traffic. Whether that road could be widened is problematic. One main advantage is that the exit onto the main road is adequate for that amount of increased traffic, and would not entail a roundabout or extra traffic lights such as bedevils the old Stradey / Sandy park site.

This would be a major extension to the planned affordable houses at the western end of Garreglwyd, and as such would be too much of an impact on traffic through Garreglwyd and onto the A484. The land is low-lying so drainage would be a problem and is likely to have the affect of increasing the risk of flooding to nearby properties and to the footpath and cycle track along the old railway line. The sewerage system is already overloaded and this development would only worsen the situation.

I wish to register my objection to Site SR/016/017 being included on any revised LDP on the grounds that Pembrey is currently a village of considerable historic interest, and further development of this size and type will turn it into little more than a dormitory town, it will lose its identity and sense of community, and its rural setting will be lost forever. The issue of flooding remains an issue and is destined to worsen as more green belt is covered in concrete and tarmacadam.

Opposing SR/016/017 - While it is difficult to lodge specific concerns at this stage as we know little detail of what is proposed for each site, we are worried at the possibility that if these sites are allowed to proceed it is feasible that upwards of 200 additional houses could be constructed.
We are of the view that if this did happen the existing infrastructure would be unable to cope and therefore we would ask that these three sites are not included in the revised LDP.

The respondent strongly objects to the site being included on the next LDP. The respondent notes that the site is located alongside proposed affordable housing and states that this would also cause problems with exit road onto Garreglwyd. Reference is made to the traffic situation within the area which is congested and unsafe - particularly as the population of the houses (assuming the respondent is talking about the affordable housing scheme adjacent) is likely to be young children, disabled and less bodied (and even the elderly).
It is claimed that an increase in population, would have a detrimental impact on the hard and soft infrastructure of the area. It is envisaged that disruption will be caused by building work. It is claimed that there are a lack of services in Pembrey (eg shops and post office), and there is concern that the area is becoming a "ghost town" between 9-5 due to limited employment opportunities.
Reference is made to the capacity of the A484, with specific reference to Sandy Road and there is concern at the impact on the area's tourism offer and environment. It is claimed that the Kidwelly and Burry Port area should be curtailed as south west wales as oppose to becoming a commuter belt for south east Wales.

We object to the inclusion of a number of sites in Pembrey in the Local Development Plan - SR/016/003, SR/016/015, SR/016/017, SR/016/006, SR/016/018.
The A484 is already extremely busy with traffic going to the Country Park, Pembrey Motor Sports and Ffos las. Pembrey would experience even longer tailbacks, similar to those near Sandy Park Roundabout.
Surface water and sewerage is a concern. Danlan Park has recently had major repair works to the sewerage system. More properties in Pembrey would increase the strain on an already overload system. Concern has been expressed about the working capacity of the Lloetrach Pump House.

I strongly object to al LDP in and around the village of Pembrey that has been submitted, that is SR/016/005, SR/016/018, SR/016/017 and SR/016/016 on the SR/016/016 also known as S/21597 Garreglwyd.
I enclose a letter dated 18 December 2009 from Mr Eifion Bowen, then head of planning, where he stated that over 4,000 objections were received including a proposal that the site be included for development. With the population of Pembrey being 4,301, why did Carmarthenshire County Council accept the wishes of one person and not the wishes of over 4,000 people of the village who were against the proposed development on this agricultural land? Which favoured this one mysterious person over the entire village.
