Second Deposit LDP

HOM1: Housing Allocations

Representation ID: 5293

Received: 13/04/2023

Respondent: Carmarthenshire County Council

Representation Summary:

Support for the removal of housing allocation T3/8/h1 in Glanamman (in the current LDP) from the Revised LDP:
As the County Councillor of Glanamman, I have been receiving very strong objections from residents living within the vicinity of this land, regarding any future housing development from taking place. Some of the residents concerns are as follows:
• The highway’s infrastructure and the impact of the additional traffic would cause safety concern, in what is already a dangerous location.
• High ecological value, and any harm to its biodiversity.
• The long history of coal mining in the area and the recorded subsidence issues in the immediate vicinity.
• The impact a possible housing development would have on other residents, including a secluded dog rescue centre.
Therefore I welcome that this land is not included in the LDP or the second deposit revised LDP and sincerely hope it remains this way.

Change suggested by respondent:

No Change to the Plan.

Respondent: Carmarthenshire County Council

Legally compliant? Not specified

Sound? Not specified

Representation Summary:

NB the respondent fully supports the representations submitted by Dr John Studley – Secretary of the Tirycoed Campaign Group, and so the following summary replicates Rep 5204 of Dr Studley:
Request for the former allocation SeC10/h4 (in the First Deposit RLDP), not including the two frontage plots (AS2/064/006), be reclassified as public or community space under Policy PSD7: Protection of Open Space.
It is emphasised that this reclassification would meet the requirements of a number of RLDP policies, and that habitat conservation would be at the heart of what is proposed. Furthermore, it is stated that this project would invest in the local Community and provide much need facilities for all. The inward development would also create local sustainable jobs, benefit local business and bring a much needed boost to the local economy. It would also serve as a Community hub, allowing people to meet and interact.

Change suggested by respondent:

That the above site be reclassified as public or community space under Policy PSD7.

The site in question has not been identified within this assessment. Matter to be further considered at Examination.
