Members of the public can have their say on a draft management plan for the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley.
A consultation
has been launched for the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty draft Management Plan 2020-2025.
Areas of
Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) contain some of the most beautiful,
spectacular and dramatic areas of countryside in Wales and have strict
guidelines for the conservation of landscape.
The Clwydian
Range and Dee Valley AONB covers approximately 390 square kilometres,
stretching from the coastal hills near Prestatyn to the north and extending as
far south as the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and the Berwyn Mountains.
It includes
land in Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham and is managed by the three county
councils with Denbighshire County Council as the lead authority for the joint
AONB committee.
Cllr Tony
Thomas, Denbighshire County Council’s Lead Member for Housing and Communities,
and Chair of the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB Joint Committee, said: “In
late 2020, Denbighshire County Council on behalf of the joint AONB committee
carried out a consultation which was used to help develop this draft management
plan.
“Now the draft
management plan has been written, the AONB committee is keen to understand
whether the contents and aims reflect what people told us was important.
“We know that
many residents and visitors enjoy visiting the area every year and it is
therefore important people have their say on the future management of the AONB
by taking part in this consultation.”
* The
consultation runs between 9th March and 20th April 2022 and to get involved and
