Description: 1.1 This application was deferred in the Planning Committee on 22 February 2015 in order to receive the necessary information regarding bats and a technical report to justify why it was not possible to locate the house closer to the location of the existing dwelling. 1.2 This is a full application for the demolition of an existing dwelling and the construction of a replacement dwelling in a different location within the property of 1-3 Arddgrach, Llannor, and associated works. The existing building is a stone / pebble-dash building with a slate roof, and a north-eastern elevation which directly abuts the adjacent class 3 county road. The proposed new house would be located back into the plot on a site where there is an existing agricultural zinc shed, with a separate garage on part of the footprint of a zinc building which was the former house's kitchen. The proposed house would be a dormer bungalow with three bedrooms, and its front elevation would face the south-east. The house would be finished with slate roofing and painted smooth render.

LINGUISTIC PROFILE OF THE LLANAELHAEARN CATCHMENT AREA 2.1 The Background of Gwynedd's Language Profile 2.2 Wards 2.3 Ysgol Llanaelhaearn 2.4 Nearby Schools 2.5 Attainment Levels 2.6 After-school Activities 2.7 Community Activities 2.8 Welsh in Education Strategic Plan 2017-2020 2.9 Additional Evidence 3. IMPACT ON THE WELSH LANGUAGE 3.1 Options 3.2 Welsh Language Impact Assessment 4. CONCLUSION 1. INTRODUCTION Supporting and developing the ability of children in Gwynedd to learn and use their language skills is essentially important to the education strategies of the County. 1.1 The Situation in Gwynedd Figures in the 2011 Census note that 65,900 (56%) people aged three years and over can speak, read and write in Welsh. The 2011 Census also notes that 65% speak Welsh which is a reduction since the previous census, when the figure was 69%. In Gwynedd, as many other Local Authorities in Wales, there is a considerable difference in the percentage of Welsh speakers within different wards. At one extreme, in wards such as Aberdyfi, Tywyn and the Menai ward in Bangor, between 18% and 38% of the population speaks Welsh, while as much as 78% speaks Welsh in the most Welsh-speaking areas e.g. Llanrug. 1.2 Language Policy Primary The aim of the Language Policy is the same across all the county’s primary schools, which is to develop the ability of all pupils to be confident in both languages by the end of KS2.
