North East Wales Border and Coast on Welsh Environment

Valuing our Environment

The Wales Spatial Plan was adopted in November 2004 and seeks to reflect the different challenges and opportunities faced in different parts of Wales. It is designed to ensure that we in the Welsh Assembly Government and others in the public, voluntary and private sectors can make the right investment decisions and interventions for the benefit of all Welsh communities and citizens.

Heritage and Culture

More needs to be done to ensure all buildings, new and existing, are sustainable. A high quality and attractive environment is crucial for environmental sustainability in addition to creating a safe environment which instils a sense of community and pride of place.

Flintshire County Council and Councilors please note, Chester Rd, Penyffordd is not a safe environment with 2000 speeders a day.
