It is therefore contrary to Policies SP1 - Delivering the Strategy, criterion 1 of SP10 – Built and Natural Environment, criteria 1, 2 and 10 of MD2 - Design of New Development, criteria 3 and 4 of MD5 – Development within Settlement Boundaries and criterion 1 of MD8 – Historic Environment of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026; as well as the advice and guidance contained in Planning Policy Wales (11th ed.) and TAN12 – Design. (2) The proposals would result in the unnecessary loss of a significant number of trees which have biodiversity and habitat value, climate benefits, and contribute positively to local amenity and the character and verdant setting of the Llysworney Conservation Area. The development is therefore contrary to Policies SP1 – Delivering the Strategy, criterion 1 of SP10 – Built and Natural Environment, criteria 10 of MD2 – Design of New Development, criteria 3 and 4 MD5 – Development within Settlement Boundaries and Policy MD9 – Promoting Biodiversity of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026; as well as the advice and guidance contained in Planning Policy Wales (11th ed.) and TAN12 – Design.

Reason for decision The decision to recommend refusal of planning permission has been taken in accordance with Section 38 of The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, which requires that, in determining a planning application the determination must be in accordance with the Development Plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The Development Plan for the area comprises the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026 and Future Wales – the National Plan 2040. It is considered that the decision complies with the Council’s well-being objectives and the sustainable development principle in accordance with the requirements of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015.

The development is, therefore, contrary to Policies MD1 and MD2 of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026 and the advice contained within Technical Advice Note 6 and 12 and Planning Policy Wales 11th Edition. (2) T H A T the Head of Legal Services be authorised to serve an Enforcement Notice under Section 172 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) to require: • the removal of the fence and resulting materials from the land or reduction of the fence to a height of not more than 1 metre above ground level. (3) T H A T, in the event of non-compliance with the Notice, authorisation be granted to take such legal proceedings as may be required. Reason for decision The decision to refuse planning permission has been taken in accordance with Section 38 of The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, which requires that, in determining a planning application the determination must be in accordance with the Development Plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The Development Plan for the area comprises the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026 and Future Wales – the National Plan 2040. The proposed fence has an unacceptable impact on the visual amenity of the countryside and is therefore contrary to Policies MD1 and MD2 of the Local Development Plan. It is considered that the decision complies with the Council’s well-being objectives and the sustainable development principle in accordance with the requirements of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. The appropriate marine policy documents have been considered in the determination of this application in accordance with Section 59 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. 2022/00401/FUL Received on 28 March 2022 (P. 186) APPLICANT: Mr and Mrs Markos, and Markella Asprou 3 White House, Barry, CF62 6FB AGENT: Mr Tasos, Asprou Studio 2, The Coach House, Stanwell Road, Penarth, CF64 3EU 3, White House, Barry Single and two storey extensions to the front and rear of property to include annex; single storey extension to the side, including material and other alterations.
