A report was presented on behalf of the Head of Planning & City Regeneration. The application had been deferred under the two stage voting process at the Planning Committee held on 3 March 2026 so that further advice could be provided with regard to the potential reason for refusal raised by Members at that meeting. The potential reason for refusal highlighted by members at the previous meeting was outlined and detailed in the report and related to highway/pedestrian safety It was outlined that the officer advice was that the recommendation of approval remained unchanged. Eleanor Cuthill (objector) addressed the committee and spoke against the application. Councillor R C Stewart (Local Member) addressed the committee and spoke against the application. Resolved that 1) the application be refused for the following reasons: a) There would be insufficient off-street parking to accommodate the proposed development and the spaces cannot be accommodated in an on-street manner since parking is at a premium in the locality. Therefore, the proposals, by virtue of the lack of car parking for the proposed House in Multiple Occupation, would result in a substandard form of development that would lead to indiscriminate parking and detriment to highway/pedestrian safety, contrary to Policy T6 of the Swansea Local Development Plan. b) The use of the on-site parking space prevents the ability to access cycle storage facilities within the site. Therefore, the proposals, by virtue of the lack of accessible cycling storage facilities for the proposed House in Multiple Occupation, would result in a substandard form of development that would lead to indiscriminate parking and detriment to highway/pedestrian safety, contrary to Policies T1, T5, T6 and PS2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan. 2) Councillor A Davies be nominated to take the lead in defending the decision at any subsequent appeal. (Note: Application refused contrary to officer recommendation)

Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
