Consideration was given to the Report of the Corporate Lead Officer – Economy and Regeneration on the following planning application which had been considered at a previous meeting and which required further consideration by the Committee: During consideration of the application below, exempt information was presented as defined in Paragraph 12 and 13 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information) (Variation) (Wales) Order 2007. It was agreed that the public and press would be excluded from the meeting during consideration, in accordance with Section 100B(2) of the Act. Following consideration of this exempt information, the committee returned to a public domain. The Public and Press were excluded at 10:30am and re-admitted at 10:45am. A210091 Retrospective planning application for agricultural implement and storage shed and improvements to existing vehicular access, Land opposite Tan Yr Allt, Coxhead, Tregaron. To REFUSE the application for the following reasons: 1. The application fails to demonstrate a need for the proposed development in this location. Therefore there is not sufficient justification for allowing development in the open countryside in line with national planning policy. The proposal is therefore contrary to Technical Advice Note 6: Planning for Sustainable Rural Communities (2010). 2. The proposal by virtue of its siting on the track-bed of the former Aberystwyth to Carmarthen railway line fails to protect former transport infrastructure which has potential to provide sustainable travel contrary to policy DM04: Sustainable Travel Infrastructure as a Material Consideration of the adopted Ceredigion County Council’s Local Development Plan (LDP). 3.The application site is located in a prominent location in the landscape away from any lawful built form. Therefore, the siting and scale of the development is considered to be detrimental to the character and appearance of the landscape and area. Consequently, the proposed development is contrary to Policies DM06 and DM17 of the Local Development Plan.
