Land at Parc Mawr Members Briefing Pack Penllergaer 2018/2697/OUT July 2020 Land at Parc Mawr Members Briefing Pack Penllergaer ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Introduction “Parc Mawr offers the opportunity to create a vibrant and walkable neighbourhood with a distinct sense of place as an integrated addition to Penllergaer. A sustainable, mixed use and inclusive community is envisaged which will put people first and provide a high quality development in the City and County of Swansea.” Bellway Homes has produced this brochure in relation to the hybrid planning application that is being presented to Planning Committee on the 17th July. The application is for the strategic site allocated in the adopted LDP (Strategic Site C) and comprises: A) Outline planning application with all matters reserved (except those included in full application below) for residential led mixed use development of up to 850 residential dwellings in total (use class C3) to be developed in phases; primary school; provision of local centre including community facilities; spine road with links to Gorseinon Road, the A483 and A484; and associated public open space/ play provision, highways, drainage, ecological mitigation, landscaping and engineering works, B) Full application for the erection of 184 dwellings and associated works as part of phase 1a of the development; access off Brynrhos Crescent; the demolition of 31 Gorseinon Road and demolition of identified Parc Mawr Farm buildings. The proposals have been subject to extensive engagement with the local community during the LDP preparation stages as well as Council officers during the application preparation. A significant number of design, public open space, community facility and green infrastructure elements have been included at the request of Officers. The proposals are therefore an exciting opportunity to develop a vibrant community where future residents can enjoy green spaces and sustainable living with excellent links to Swansea via an enhanced pedestrian and cycle network. The scheme will provide much needed open market and affordable homes on one of the Council’s strategic sites in the LDP. 2 In delivering the vision the masterplan proposes to: Site Wide Masterplan p CreateCreate aa sustainablesustainable residentialresidential neighbourhoodneighbourhood ofof up to 850up tonew 850 homes new homes within withinPenllergaer, Penllergaer, comprising comprising a number of charactera number areas of character that integrate areas that positively integrate with positively the existing community,with the existing community. p Create Create a multi-functionala multi-functional Green Green Infrastructure Infrastructure network network throughoutthroughout the thesite, site, with with an emphasisan emphasis on integratingon integrating New Access landscapelandscape features, features, protecting protecting biodiversity, biodiversity, habitat habitat creation creation p Deliver Deliver a newa new local local ‘hub’ ‘hub’ to to Penllergaer Penllergaer with with a a new New Nursery and Primary primarynew primaryschool and school nursery, and nursery,and supporting and supporting commercial School usescommercial around a focal uses area around in the a focal northern area inpart the northern part Neighbourhood Centre p Retain Retain the the farm farm lane lane as as an an Active Active Travel Travel route route through through the thesite. site. p Retain Retain the the farm farm complex complex and and reuse reuse for for community community Retained Farm Buildings benefit.benefit. p Provide Provide a mixa mix of ofhigher higher densities densities at atkey key points points in inthe the layoutlayout and and lower lower densities densities on theon therural/sensitive rural/sensitive edges. edges. p Provide Provide a linka link between between A484 A484 to to spine spine street street with with cycle cycle pathpath alongside alongside Green Infrastructure Network Sports Pitches New Access Up to 850 New Homes Connecting Link to A484 3 The site-wide GI Strategy is multifunctional and provides: p Increased green space in more sensitive areas.

Proposed Neighbourhood Centre and Primary School The masterplan proposes a new local ‘hub’ to Penllergaer with a new primary school and nursery, and supporting commercial uses around a focal area in the north of the site. This part of the site will have ‘contemporary’ character, anchored by the new primary school and commercial use and based around a new tree lined link through the development. It will contain the highest density parts of the development and including buildings of increased scale, a number of which should act as local landmarks.

    Swansea Welsh Unitary Council Election Results 1995-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
