Green Barrier Petition and LDP - Additional Information
In relation to the petition that was launched the other day to try to stop further building on the outskirts of the village, including protecting the Vounog Hill sledging field, the information and map below will hopefully provide you with additional information that you may find useful.
The County are due to have their Local Development Plan (LDP 2015 to 2030) scrutinised by Welsh Governments Planning Inspectors by means of a public inquiry that starts on 16th March. Because the County have not had their plan in place, that should have been completed five years ago, we have been vulnerable to speculative development applications, where five have been approved for the village by the Planning Inspectors that are outside the currently agreed UDP boundary. The approval of this LDP plan asap therefore is essential to protect us from further speculative applications.
Attached are two maps, the first one shows the current boundary of the village in black that was created following the Unitary Development Plan (UDP 2019 to 2015). The added blue boundaries are the sites that were approved on appeal by the Inspector for outside the agreed UDP boundary that County have now included in their LDP. The second map shows the proposed amended new boundary where I have identified where we want Green barrier and the new village boundary until at least 2030. I have also noted the play areas on this map that I am looking to have protected.
Unfortunately, County would not agree to the proposals for the green barrier that I am seeking, which is why I am appealing to the Inspector to add this to the plan for the village. The amount of Green barrier I am looking for is quite ambitions, but if we can get at least the West of Vounog hill, that will be an achievement!
The intention of the petition is to give weight to our argument for this green barrier when we put our case to the Inspector when we are called on or after the 16th March, so please promote it as much as you can.
I hope this is clear for you and that you will do your best to promote this petition, and paper copies for those who do not do this kind of IT will be circulated, (allowing for Covid protection) next week.
Thank you for your support, and please feel free to contact me if you have any further queries – but not through social media!
