The following issues have been raised:- Overlooking and loss of privacy; Access not within the applicants ownership; Fuel tanks and industrial estate to the rear of the site and potential issues for residents; Not an appropriate location for the occupants due to nearby uses, traffic and noise; Lack of pavements; Other more suitable properties available; Poor visibility; Poor/unsuitable access, particularly for emergency vehicles; On street/road parking; Increased traffic generation; Existing traffic issues; Disturbance from traffic; Query whether property is to be altered/extended; Not suitable location for commercial property; Concern rear of the site would be developed for large residential home; Lack of boundary wall meaning potential for intruders; Damage to boundary walls from vehicles. RELEVANT PLANNING HISTORY The following previous applications have been received on the application site:- D4/23636 Certificate of Lawfulness for use of land and premises as a builders yard Lawful Development – CLOPUD refused 11 August 1993 D4/21930 Small builders yard Full planning permission 25 February 1992 D4/11408 Extension to existing dwelling Full planning permission 29 March 1983 D4/5763 Erection of shed to replace existing outbuildings Approved with conditions 04 June 1979 APPRAISAL THE SITE The application site is currently a five bedroom detached residential property located off the northern western flank of Alltycnap Road, Johnstown. The site is located within the development limits of the settlement. Both sides of the application site there are residential properties and the Cillefwr Industrial Estate is located to the northwest. Their dwelling is set in a large curtilage with the land falling from the road to the northwest. The rear of the property is over three floors with the front being of two storey appearance. There is an existing driveway access located to the north eastern side of the dwelling and a garage. The access leads down to parking and turning areas to the rear of the property. There is also a detached workshop/garage located at the northern western end of the curtilage. THE PROPOSAL The application seeks full planning permission for change of use of the property to a care home, an extension to the property and a new access. The application states that the property would be used as a care home for six persons who need assistance with daily living. The application indicates that there would be 24 hour care provided at the property with three staff at the home during the day and one during the night. The plans show a total of six bedrooms for permanent residents. One is at ground floor level and five at first floor level. Each bedroom would have en-suite facilities. There is also a staff bedroom at ground floor level. A shared lounge and kitchen is also shown at ground floor level along with an office. A lobby, laundry room, WC and meeting room are shown at the lower ground level. The proposal includes an extension at ground floor level providing a covered porch leading down to the lower ground floor laundry room. The porch would be glazed. It is also proposed to close up the existing garage and replace this with a window and alterations to the garage roof to increase the height. The proposal has been amended following concerns from the Head of Transport. The proposal is now to close off the existing access to the eastern side of the dwelling and create a new access on the other side. This new access would have improved visibility. There is a parking and turning area shown to the rear of the building to accommodate up to 8 cars. The application is for a care home and the type of care provided is not something that would be confirmed as part of the application, simply that it would be within the C2 use class. The applicants have provided some background information on the intended use of the property as follows:- It is intended that the new home at Danybryn will provide social care support to adults with a range of needs. The home will focus on improving people’s level of functioning so that they are able to live independently. This will be achieved by supporting people’s daily living skills e.g., cooking, budgeting, gardening, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The residents supported at Danybryn will generally be local people who will likely have been in hospital due to mental ill health such as depression, anxiety or other illness but are now well, but need some support to regain skills or confidence to progress into their local community as part of their recovery. The new home will provide skilled support to enable them to achieve this. Tracscare pride themselves in being part of the community and where possible will become involved in local community projects. It is intended that the home will be positive addition to the local community with a well- maintained property and garden with a pleasant external appearance to enhance the local street scene. Tracscare have for many years been running two very similar homes in the Carmarthen area, one in Johnstown and one in Bronwydd. In both these areas they have endeavoured and succeeded in become part of those communities, and they have appreciated the acceptance and support of the communities, local to these homes. There are several positive stories regarding individuals from these homes who have progressed to live independently in the Carmarthen area. Tracscare will recruit and provide skill development training to local people. PLANNING POLICY In the context of the current development control policy framework the site is located outside the defined development limits as contained in the adopted Carmarthenshire Local Development Plan Adopted December 2014. Policy GP1 of the Local Development Plan (LDP) sets out the general requirements of the Local Planning Authority to ensure sustainability and high quality design through new development. In particular, that “it conforms with and enhances the character and appearance of the site, building or area in terms of siting, appearance, scale, height, massing, elevation treatment, and detailing”, “it would not have a significant impact on the amenity of adjacent land uses, properties, residents or the community” and “an appropriate access exists or can be provided which does not give rise to any parking or highway safety concerns on the site or within the locality” Policy H6 Residential Care Facilities states that proposals for the development of residential care facilities and extensions to existing facilities within the Development Limits of a defined settlement (Policy SP3) will be permitted where it has safe and convenient access to community facilities and services.

  • Cors Pum Heol Five Roads, Carmarthenshire
    39. Cors Pum Heol Five Roads, Carmarthenshire Grid References O.S. Explorer map 178 Llanelli and Ammanford. Main entrance: SN484048, Site centre: SN486047 Status Tenure Leased from the Stradey Estate for 21 years from 25th March 1993. Size 4.86 hectares (12 acres). Location and Take the B4309 (Pontyates-Llanelli via Five Roads). At Five Access Notes Roads, take the unclassified road to Trimsaran (Gelli Fawr Road). Park by the sub-station. Access is by crossing fields which are behind and adjacent to the sub-station. This is permissible under the terms of the lease. Public transport Bus numbers 194 & 195 from Llanelli stop at Five Roads. Description: The reserve consists of unimproved “boggy” rhos-like pasture dominated by Purple Moor Grass, occupying a topographical depression at the headwaters of the Afon Dulais near Pum Heol (Five Roads), Llanelli. Whilst rhos pastures are a particular feature of Carmarthenshire, many have been lost to agricultural improvements and other more general developments. The result is that such habitats have become fragmented or reduced to such a size that the long-term viability is questionable. The most notable species present is the Royal Fern, Osmunda regalis which occurs in boggy habitats and can grow to a spectacular 6 feet or more. Bilberry and Bog Bean both occur in the Sphagnum-filled depressions in the north- west. Bog Asphodel can also be seen. The surrounding periphery consists of scrub with species including Rowan, Oak and Willow. Birds such as Tree Pipits and Whitethroat have been seen, as well as invertebrates such as the Emperor Moth.
