(a)       That the Council approve the Supplementary Planning Guidance shown in Appendix 1 of the report, relating to guidance for the development of UDP housing allocation HSG1(38) Land off Ffordd Eldon, as Supplementary Guidance for use as a material planning consideration in determining planning applications; and

(b)       That the Council give the Director of Environment delegated authority, following consultation with the Cabinet Member for Environment, to format (and where necessary typographically correct) the wording of the Supplementary Planning Guidance into the appropriate house style for subsequent publication.

The Planning Strategy Manager introduced the Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) relating to a development brief for the UPD housing allocation HSG1(38) Former Sewage Works, Wats Dyke Way, now renamed Land off Ffordd Eldon, Sychdyn. 

            The SPG had been drafted in consultation with Councillor M. Bateman as the Local Member and in line with the advice of the Welsh Government (WG).  The representations received on the brief during the consultation and the responses were shown as appendices to the guidance attached to the report. 

            Councillor J.B. Attridge proposed that the County Council support the recommendations as detailed within the report and this was seconded by Councillor R.C. Bithell. 

            In response to a question on the density of the development, the Planning Strategy Manager explained that the within the community there was a perceived need for bungalows in order for local persons to downsize therefore the density outlined within the SPG would be used as a guide when considering future applications on this site. 

            Councillor M. Bateman thanked the Planning Strategy Manager and his team for the work they had undertaken in developing the SPG and for taking on board the comments of residents during the consultation process.
