To whom it may concern, We write in our capacity as County Borough Councillors for Abercynon Ward, Rhondda Cynon Taf Council. Residents within our Ward have raised concerns about the poor condition of land in Network Rail ownership. There are many tracts of land throughout Abercynon Ward that are strewn with fly-tipping and litter. The visual and environmental impact of these pieces of land is profound. They have a detrimental impact on the health and well-being of local people who see the land on a daily basis. They also have a negative impact on the local business community and project an unsightly image of the Cynon Valley to those who visit for leisure and recreation purposes. The condition of the natural environment is very important to residents in Abercynon Ward. We value the green spaces in our community. We have worked hard over recent years to improve the local environment by hosting ‘Community Clean-up Days’. These events bring together local residents, public service providers and third sector organisations who all share the same ambition; to improve the environment in our community. We have been generously supported by Rhondda Cynon Taf Council in this endeavor and the Council has made the cleaning up of land in Council ownership one of its top priorities. On behalf of the community, we kindly ask your organisation to fulfill its obligations to the public and our natural environment. Please find attached a list of sites in poor condition in Network Rail ownership throughout Abercynon Ward complete with location details for ease of reference. Yours Sincerely, Cllr Rhys Lewis Cllr Elaine George Abercynon Ward County Borough Councillors Location: Banking above Park Road close to Abercynon R.F.C Clubhouse.

As part of the statutory development plan process the Council is required to prepare an Annual Monitoring Report (AMR). The AMR will provide the basis for monitoring the progress and delivery of the LDP, the Plan’s sustainability credentials, and it identifies any significant contextual changes that might influence its implementation. This is the seventh AMR to be prepared since the adoption of the Rhondda Cynon Taf LDP and provides a further opportunity for the Council to assess the impact the LDP is having on the social, economic and environmental well-being of the County Borough. Key Findings of the Annual Monitoring Process 2017-2018 Contextual Change This section looks at local, regional, national and international factors that have had an influence on land-use development in Rhondda Cynon Taf and subsequently on the implementation of the LDP during 2017-2018. These include: A. National Policy, Guidance or Legislation: • The Town and Country Planning (Enforcement Notice and Appeals) (Wales) Regulations 2017; • The Town and Country Planning (Trees) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2017; • Draft Planning Policy Wales Edition 10; • TAN 24: The Historic Environment.

CANDIDATE SITE REGISTER Index of Sites
Foreword The Rhondda Cynon Taf Local Development Plan (LDP) provides for a new way of planning for the future of the County Borough. This follows major changes to the planning system which were introduced by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. It sees the replacement of the old system of structure and local plans which, until the LDP is adopted, forms the Development Plan for the County Borough. As the Plan will identify land for new development during the CANDIDATE SITE period 2006 – 2021, it will be important that sites allocated for housing, employment, and other uses are capable of coming forward within this timescale and that they can contribute fully REGISTER to sustainability objectives whilst meeting overall growth requirements. Previous undeveloped local plan allocations, along with sites Index of Sites put forward by development interests (Candidate Sites) need to be considered carefully. A Methodology for consistently and objectively assessing these sites was subject to consultation in the summer of 2006. This Candidate Site Register brings together the approved methodology together with a full list of strategic and non- strategic sites to be considered, with maps showing their location and extent. Through the publication and availability of this information further transparency will be added to the process. Gaps in the number sequence for the Candidate Sites result from the omission of small sites of 0.3 hectare or less. These will be considered as part of the review of settlement boundaries.
