* The additional candidate development site at Cilmedw.
An extra site in Llangollen has been added to the
list of those already put forward as possible areas for future development in
Denbighshire.
Last summer the county council revealed that 11 sites
in the town had been suggested as potential development candidates in the replacement
Local Development Plan (LDP) which is currently in preparation.
Council planners have just written to concerned
parties informing them that one additional local site has been added to the
list – land at Cilmedw Way, just off the A5.
Covering 8.36 hectares, this is currently used for
agriculture but has been suggested for mixed use.
Its listing says that the site does not comply with
the Draft Preferred Strategy.
Details of additional candidate sites which can be
found here: www.denbighshire.gov.uk/LDP
(Click on ‘Replacement Local Development Plan’, then
click on ‘Additional Candidate Sites’ and from the list of areas click on ‘Llangollen’)
This is the third site at Cilmedw to appear in the
list. There is one covering 1.6 hectares which is currently an overgrown field
and another of 3.7 hecatres, used as greenfield land, and both are suggested
for housing and/or leisure.
Planners stress that, as with all other candidate
sites, the submission of the third Cilmedw site does not mean it is a planning
application.
Work is already well advanced on preparing the new
LDP for Denbighshire to cover the period 2018 – 2033.
The first major consultation stage was the draft
Preferred Strategy, or Pre-Deposit, which took place at various venues across
the county, including Llangollen Town Hall, last July and August.
Additional candidate sites were submitted to the council
during the draft Preferred Strategy consultation period.
The letter from planners says: “It is important to
note that no decision has been made on any of the candidate sites and they are not
planning applications.
“The candidate sites are simply a reflection of what
has been submitted to Denbighshire County Council for consideration to potentially
be included as allocations in Denbighshire's replacement Local Development Plan
2018 to 2033.
“We are now consulting on these additional candidate
sites.”
