DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST Councillor M.R. Wilson, the Vice-Chair, informed the Committee that he had sought advice from the Council’s Monitoring Officer regarding planning application 2025/01008/RG3 Land East of Dunraven Close, Cowbridge (Proposed new school – Ysgol Iolo Morganwg). This was due to his wife being the Council’s Cabinet Member for Education, Arts and the Welsh Language. The Monitoring Officer had advised that Councillor Wilson did not need to declare a personal or prejudicial interest and March 19 Minutes and DN (MT) therefore he could remain in the meeting, participate and vote when the agenda item was presented and discussed by the Committee.

(ii) 2025/00004/TREE – Reservoir Wood, between Lewis Road, Llandough and Pen y Turnpike Road – Request to apply a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) to the area of woodland between Lewis Road, Llandough and Pen y Turnpike Road, also known as Reservoir Wood. The site related to Reservoir Wood; a Broadleaf woodland located between Pen-Y- Turnpike, Leckwith Road and Llandough Hospital. The site was located within the Cwrt-yr-Ala Basin Special Landscape Area (SLA) and category 2 mineral safeguarding zone for limestone and had also been identified as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC) in the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011 – 2026. A request was made to the Council by a resident of Lewis Road to consider whether the woodland would be suitable for a TPO. The request stated that due to the woodlands status as a Restored Ancient Woodland and the presence of a number of trees which were considered to be of a pleasant form, as well as the ecological and amenity value of the site, the resident considered the site suitable for a TPO. Officers from the Council’s Planning and Neighbourhood Services departments visited the site and concluded that due to the amenity value of the woodland for nearby residents, its contribution to the character of the SLA, the visibility of the woodland from a number of publicly accessible areas, and its healthy status as a naturally regenerative woodland, a TPO would be appropriate and necessary. On this basis TPO (No. 4 of 2025) was served on 23rd December, 2025. Letters were sent to the landowners and neighbours of the site who were given 28 days to comment on the TPO. The planning authority received 15 letters of support from residents of Llandough and one letter of objection from a landowner of part of the woodland. Whilst an objection had been raised to the TPO, it was considered that none of the issues raised by the objector provided sufficient justification to override the reasons in favour of confirmation of the TPO. Therefore, it was recommended that the TPO be confirmed without modification. March 19 Minutes and DN (MT) RESOLVED – T H A T the Tree Preservation Order be confirmed without modification. Reason for decision The decision to recommend the confirmation of a TPO had been taken in accordance with Section 198 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended), which empowered the local planning authority to make provision for the preservation of trees or woodlands. Having regard to the Council’s duties under the Equality Act 2010 the proposed development did not have any significant implications for, or effect on, persons who shared a protected characteristic. It was considered that the decision complied 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. PLANNING APPLICATIONS (HSD) RESOLVED – T H A T in pursuance of the powers delegated to the Committee, the following applications be determined as indicated and any other necessary action be taken. 2025/01008/RG3 Received on 13 January 2026 APPLICANT: Kelly Williams Ffordd Y Mileniwm, Barry, CF63 4RT AGENT: Mr Liam Hopkins Westgate House, 11 Womanby Street, Cardiff, CF10 1AF Land East of Dunraven Close (the former construction compound associated with Phase 1 of the Clare Garden Village scheme), Cowbridge Proposed new school – Ysgol Iolo Morganwg.
