The proposals would have an unacceptable detrimental impact on the setting of several listed buildings which was contrary to the requirements of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023, and of Planning Policy Wales 12 (2024),Technical Advice Note 24(2017) The Historic Environment and also contrary to policy DM19 of the Ceredigion Local Development Plan 2007-2022 which all sought to protect, and where appropriate, enhance the historic environment and ensure that development would not detract from the intrinsic architectural interest, character, appearance or setting of listed buildings. 2. The Heritage Impact Assessment / Statement did not adequately assess the significance of the listed building or adequately justify the proposals, and was therefore contrary to the legislation and guidance set out in the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023,Planning Policy Wales 12 (2024) and Technical Advice Note 24 (2026) The Historic Environment. 3. The proposals failed to preserve or enhance the Aberystwyth Conservation Area and was therefore contrary to the requirements of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023, and of Planning Policy Wales 12 (2024),Technical Advice Note 24 (2017) The Historic Environment and are contrary to policies DM06, DM07 and DM19 of the Ceredigion Local Development Plan 2007-2022. 4. The proposals would have an unacceptable detrimental impact on residential amenity contrary to policy DM06 of the Ceredigion Local Development Plan 2007-2022. __________________________________________________________________ Mr Morrissey & Miss Thomas (Applicants)addressed the Committee in accordance with the Operational procedure for Members of the Public addressing the Development Control Committee A250897 Proposed conversion, extension and change of use of existing detached double domestic garage to a single unit of holiday accommodation and all associated works, Ffynnon Llefrith Fach, Plwmp To APPROVE the application subject to conditions. Members were of the opinion that the application could be approved against office recommendations for the following reasons:- • The application sustains a family within the rural community • Promotes and benefits tourism and businesses within Ceredigion • In rural areas this planning application was seen as diversification • The need for a mix of holiday accommodation for different types of people • Planning permission had already been granted to extend the garage. The proposed holiday let would be the same size as the extended garage if that was built. This mitigates the size and visual impact of concerns raised in the report. _________________________________________________________________ Mrs Nicola Clarke (Applicant) & Mr Gareth Flynn (Agent) addressed the Committee in accordance with the Operational procedure for Members of the Public addressing the Development Control Committee A250948 Proposed Open Market Dwelling, Land Adj To Gwelfro Bryn Road, Aberaeron To REFER the application to the Site Inspection Panel in accordance with Point 2 & 5 of the Council’s adopted criteria. ________________________________________________________________ Ms Nerys Owen (speaking on behalf of objectors) & Mr Sion Jenkins (Applicant) addressed the Committee in accordance with the Operational procedure for Members of the Public addressing the Development Control Committee A260006A residential development in outline with all matters being reserved, Land to the East of Tanrallt Farm, Llanilar To REFER the application to the Site Inspection Panel in accordance with Point 2, 4, 5 & 7 of the Council’s adopted criteria.

Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
