Housing development for up to 7 residential units at land to the
rear of Garth, Rhydargaeau, Carmarthen, SA32 7HY
A
representation was received objecting to the application which
re-iterated the objection points detailed within the Head of Place
and Sustainability’s written report. In the main, the concerns related to the
substantial development within the area in recent years, the strain
placed on the education provision within the locality and adverse
impact on the Welsh Language. In
addition, issues related to the local sewerage pumping station
which would further exacerbate and overload the system and the loss
of privacy for neighbouring properties was noted. Highway safety concerns were also raised due to
the close proximity of the proposed development to a junction on
the brow of a hill. In this regard it
was considered that the
development would add to the already
high the volume of traffic on the A485, visibility issues and
speeding vehicles.
The applicant’s
agent and the Senior Development Management Officer responded to
the issues raised.
A representation was
received from the local member who reiterated the concerns
expressed by local residents as set out in the Head of Place and
Sustainability’s written report and which related to highway
safety matters caused by vehicles exceeding the speed limit,
together with the loss of privacy, particularly as a result of the
requirement to reduce vegetation within neighbouring
properties.
The Senior
Development Management Officer responded to the issues raised
during consideration of the report.

objecting to the application which re-iterated the objection points
detailed within the Head of Place and Sustainability’s
written report. In the main, the concerns related to the loss of
public open space, noise and protection issues, the adverse
implications on town vitality, and the associated accessibility
issues as a result of the car park being needed for use by elderly
and disabled residents. Reference was
made to the land being subject to a covenant and the detrimental
impact on the ecology of the site and area by virtue of the
development and the disturbance the development would
bring.
It was also expressed that the
application was inadequately documented, with inaccurate floorspace
measurements noted, and that additional information by way of a
report on the impact on the setting of the castle and the other
designated historic assets was required to enable a balanced
decision to be taken. Furthermore,
reference was made to what was considered to be the poor execution
