MINUTES The Chair signed the minutes of the previous meeting of this committee held on 8 July, 2013 as a true record. 3. PLANNING APPLICATIONS The Committee considered the following applications for development. The details of the applications were expanded upon and questions in relation to the plans and aspects of the policies were responded to. RESOLVED 1. Application No. C11/1140/22/LL – Land near Bro Silyn, Talysarn, Caernarfon Construction of new track to serve the slate tip along with creating a new access. (a) The Senior Planning Service Manager elaborated on the background of the application and he noted that this application before the committee was to create a new access and a new track approximately 300 metres from slate waste to serve the old slate tip to the south-west of Bro Silyn estate on the eastern outskirts of Talysarn. Attention was drawn to the extant planning permission for working the slate tip through the standard process which forms part of the planning system. The purpose of the entrance would be to transport slate material out of the slate tip but there would be a restriction of approximately six loads a day which was equal to 12 traffic movements. In the context of the consultations, it was noted that no objections had been received. From the perspective of the Transportation Unit, it was noted that the access was acceptable on the grounds of highway requirements subject to relevant conditions. A further observation had been received from the Gwynedd Archaeological Planning Service noting an additional condition regarding any work undertaken to be in accordance with archaeological details to be approved before hand with the local Planning Service. Reference was made to the relevant planning considerations and the planning officers believed that the development was acceptable and complied with the relevant policies in terms of its location, design, visual amenities, biodiversity, the historical landscape, residential amenities and road safety. 2 Planning Committee 29.07.13 Proposed and seconded – to approve the application. Resolved: To approve the application in accordance with the following conditions: 1. To remove the track within two years of the date of this consent 2. In accordance with the plans 3. Highway conditions 4. Biodiversity Condition 5. Restrictions on traffic flow and times 6. Use slates from the Dolbebin tip only for the access and track. 2. Application No. C12/1347/25/LL – Land near Ffordd Penrhos, Bangor. Construct 245 living units comprising detached and semi-detached houses, flats (including 86 affordable units), parking spaces and gardens, associated works, erection of pumping station and demolition of single-storey outbuilding. Members of the Committee had visited the site prior to this meeting. (a) The Senior Planning Service Manager elaborated on the background to the application, namely to construct 245 houses on the above site including a selection of different housing types in terms of design and size.

In the high season you may descend by another of the Snowdon paths and catch the Sherpa bus back to your vehicle. © 2010 Snowdonia National Park Authority Llanberis Path, Snowdon Llanberis Path is the longest and most gradual of the six main paths to the summit of Snowdon, and offers fantastic views of Cwm Brwynog, Llanberis and over the Menai straights towards Anglesey. This is the most popular path amongst leisurely walkers as it is thought to be the easiest to walk in mild weather, but in winter, the highest slopes of the path can become very dangerous. The path mainly follows the Snowdon Mountain Railway track, and goes by Hebron, Halfway and Clogwyn stations. Before the railway was opened in 1896, visitors employed guides to lead them to the summit along this path on mule-back. A remarkable geological feature can be seen from the Llanberis path, the Clogwyn Du’r Arddu syncline. The syncline was formed over thousands of years, as the earth moved and transformed horizontal depos- its into vertical layers of rock. Safety Note The Llanberis Path and Snowdon Mountain Railway cross above Clogwyn Coch.

  • A487 Caernarfon and Bontnewydd Bypass
    A487 Caernarfon and Bontnewydd Bypass Environmental Statement - Volume 1 Technical Assessment Report 15 ASSESSMENT OF CUMULATIVE EFFECTS 15.1 Introduction This chapter presents those cumulative effects not explicitly addressed elsewhere in the Environmental Statement. The majority of the EIA topic assessments consider the effects of the Scheme on receptors or receptor groups and, as such, many of the inter-related impacts on those receptors are considered within the topic chapters. For instance, effects on ecological receptors arising from any combination of land take, noise, visual disturbance, air quality impacts, water quality impacts and potential traffic collision are considered within the ecology chapter. As such, the potential for inter-relationships is inherent within the topic assessments and these effects are not repeated in this chapter. 15.2 Legislative and best practice guidance requirements The approach to assessing cumulative impacts is addressed under DMRB Vol. 11, Section 2, Part 5 (HA 205/08)15.1. This draws on guidelines for assessing indirect, cumulative and impact interactions, published by the European Commission15.2. HA 205/08 recognises two principle types of cumulative impacts to be addressed in EIAs as follows: Cumulative Impacts from a single project (e.g. combined effects of differing environmental impacts on a single receptor or resource), and Cumulative impacts from different projects (in combination with the project being assessed). The guidance states that in the first type (impacts from a single project) the impacts arise from the ‘combined action of a number of environmental topic specific impacts upon a single receptor/resource’. For the second cumulative impact assessment type (cumulative impacts from other projects) the guidance states that: ‘For the purposes of this guidance, ‘reasonably foreseeable’ is interpreted to include other projects that are ‘committed’.

  • Zones of Influence
    Eryri Local Development Plan Background Paper 21 Zones of Influence May 2017 Background Paper 21: Zones of Influence – May 2017 Introduction The Authority has identified eight ‘Zones of influence’ which are within and straddle the National Park. These areas have similar characteristics and have strong community links. The work on the Zones of Influence draws on a wide range of surveys and related national, regional and local plans and strategies discussed in the Spatial Development Strategy Background Paper. The paper identifies key centres within each zone of influence and recognises the influences of key centres outside the Park to inform the Spatial Development Strategy. The paper identifies key transport routes, key employment areas, and further education and key services for each zone. The paper discusses the main issues for each zone individually, the implications for the Local Development Plan and how the issues are addressed in the Plan. 2 Background Paper 21: Zones of Influence – May 2017 1.1. BALA ZONE OF INFLUENCE 3 Background Paper 21: Zones of Influence – May 2017 What’s it like now? 1.2. This zone covers Penllyn rural hinterland covering the community councils of Llanuwchllyn, Llandderfel, Llangywer, Llanycil and Bala and has a population of 4,362 according to the 2011 Census. The landscape is rural in character with scattered farmsteads and small villages. The zone includes Llyn Tegid (the largest natural lake in Wales), Llyn Celyn, Arenig Fawr and parts of the Aran Fawddwy. The main service centre for the area is the market town of Bala. Penllyn has strong traditions based on the Welsh language and culture.

  • Appendix a Walking and Discovering – the Scheme
    APPENDIX A WALKING AND DISCOVERING – THE SCHEME MENTER FACHWEN INTRODUCTION The basic idea behind the scheme has been a dream for couple of years and is based on similar projects in Canada. The idea grew quickly in the Spring of 2011when the local Artist, photographer and author Gareth Roberts won the support of the ‘World of Difference’ V0dafone scheme and spent a period of 3 months in developing it. During this time he has the chance to trial several new radical ideas in schools and communities in Gwynedd, Môn and Conwy. Purpose in establishing such a scheme was to encourage people of all ages and ability to walk and discover (emphasising the ‘discover’) the landscape around us for health reasons, for socialising, for enjoyment and to create interest in archaeology, history, wildlife, geology etc. The project will concentrate on the public footpath network (and others generally under 1000 feet).. Although the main building is on the High Street in Llanberis,there will be information branches (in cooperation with charities and societies) and activities throughout Gwynedd, Môn and Conwy. The activities will be aimed at people of all backgrounds and abilities, young and not so young, with disabilities, people who have been instructed to walk for health reasons etc. It will come apparent from this document that interest will be encouraged aimed at a new generation of people and the public through digital projects who will be able to contribute to the scheme whether be local or otherwise. At present I am working with Menter Fachwen to establish the centre on the High Street in Llanberis.
