RESOLVED to approve as an accurate record, the minutes of the meeting of the Planning and Development Committee held on the 6th March 2025.
RESOLVED to approve the application in accordance with the recommendation of the Director, Prosperity and Development subject to the completion of a section 106 agreement requiring an Employment and Skills Plan and a Habitat Management Plan to provide long-term biodiversity mitigation at the site .
RESOLVED to approve the application in accordance with the recommendation of the Director, Prosperity and Development subject to an additional condition as below: Development shall not commence until design and details of the works required to the guardrail to the rear onto The Parade have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved details shall be implemented prior to beneficial occupation. REASON: In the interests of highway and pedestrian safety. (Note: A motion was seconded to undertake a site visit but failed.)
RESOLVED to refuse the application contrary to the recommendation of the Director, Prosperity and Development for the following reason: The proposal represents an inappropriate conversion and is considered overdevelopment of the site, resulting in an unacceptable intensification of use and poor-quality living accommodation for future residents, including a lack of outdoor amenity space and waste storage facilities. The additional comings and goings would also cause unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents. Furthermore, the location of the site, noting the absence of significant large-scale local employment opportunities in the locality, would be considered to rely on the use of the private motor vehicle. In addition, the development would provide no off-street parking spaces, resulting in an increased on-street parking demand and indiscriminate on-street parking in an area of already high demand, to the detriment of highway safety and the free flow of traffic. As such, the application is contrary to Policies AW5 and AW6 of the Rhondda Cynon Taf Local Development Plan and Supplementary Planning Guidance: Houses in Multiple Occupation and Access, Circulation and Parking Requirements.
