Supplementary planning guidance

Published

12 years ago

June 16, 2014

PROPOSALS for more flexible and user-friendly affordable housing guidance are to be discussed by the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority.

New draft supplementary planning guidance (SPG) on affordable housing will be put before members at a meeting of the full authority on June 11. Members will decide whether to approve the guidance for public consultation. The proposed SPG, which aims to increase the provision of affordable housing in the National Park, was drafted following recent scrutiny by Park Authority members of the existing policy which is set out in the authority’s current Local Development Plan (LDP). Consultants were engaged to work with housing associations, landowners, estate agents and Pembrokeshire County Council to examine the current guidelines, which were adopted as part of the LDP in 2010. The Authority’s Head of Park Direction, Martina Dunne, said: “What we are proposing in the current economic climate is a more flexible and streamlined system to help meet local housing need but which also allows room for negotiations with developers and landowners about affordable housing contributions. “We are also proposing improvements to the planning application process to make it more accessible and to encourage developers to get pre-application advice from planners on a specific site, before an application fee is paid. “This service is important as at an early stage in the planning process our officers can discuss and potentially negotiate with applicants the most appropriate levels of affordable housing provision in a new development, based on a more flexible SPG.” The draft Supplementary Planning Guidance – Affordable Housing document will be available on the authority’s website at www. pembrokeshirecoast.org.uk from June 2. The SPG will be discussed at the National Park Authority meeting at Llanion Park, Pembroke Dock on Monday, June 11. If members’ approve the draft guidance it will be implemented as an interim measure from July 1 and will be reviewed following a three month period of public consultation.

The road was closed while collision investigators carried out enquiries at the scene.

Officers are now appealing for witnesses, and are asking anyone who saw either vehicle before the crash to come forward.

They are also urging anyone with dash-cam footage, CCTV or doorbell footage covering the stretch of road to contact police.

Climate and nature hustings to be held in Cardigan ahead of Senedd election

West Wales Climate Coalition invites Ceredigion Penfro candidates to face voters’ questions on climate change and nature at public Guildhall event

CARDIGAN voters will have the chance to put their questions directly to Senedd election candidates at a climate and nature hustings taking place in the town next week.

The event, organised by West Wales Climate Coalition, will be held at the Guildhall in Cardigan on Thursday (Apr 16).

All parties have been invited to take part in the hustings, which will focus on climate change, nature and environmental policy in the new Ceredigion Penfro constituency.

Organisers say the event will give local people the chance to hear directly from candidates hoping to win seats in the upcoming Senedd election, while also pressing them on how they plan to respond to what campaigners describe as the growing climate and nature crisis.

Free food will be available from 6:00pm, provided by Street Food Morocco, with the hustings beginning at 6:30pm. Simultaneous translation will also be available.

The evening will be run in the style of a People’s Assembly, with attendees first breaking into small groups to discuss and agree questions before putting them to the panel. The event will conclude with candidates summing up their campaigns and environmental commitments.

Philip Hughes, of West Wales Climate Coalition, said: “We chose to host this event in Cardigan because the public are becoming increasingly worried about the environment, and often politicians underestimate the importance voters put on the climate and nature crisis.

“This Senedd election must be a turning point for nature and the climate crisis and we need ambitious and passionate leaders to make that happen.

“The upcoming Senedd election will be a defining moment for nature’s recovery, as the next Welsh Government’s actions can play a crucial role in contributing to a more liveable planet for us all and especially our children.”

Organisers say Wales remains one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world and warn that urgent political action is needed to tackle nature loss, climate change, pollution and waste.

They say one in six UK species is now at risk of extinction and argue that strong leadership will be needed from the next Welsh Government if that decline is to be reversed.

Slade Park pavements cleaned after residents raise safety concerns

HAVERFORDWEST Castle Ward’s county councillor Thomas Tudor says action has now been taken to deal with slippery, moss-covered pavements at Slade Park after concerns were raised by local residents.

Residents contacted Cllr Tudor about the condition of the footpaths within the housing complex, warning that the thick build-up of moss was making the surfaces dangerous underfoot.

Photographs taken before the work was carried out show large sections of pavement covered in moss, creating a potentially hazardous surface for pedestrians.

Cllr Tudor said he was pleased to report that, following his intervention, the pavements have now been cleaned by Pembrokeshire County Council and Pembrokeshire County Council Housing Services.

He praised the maintenance team for their work and said the clean-up would make a real difference for people living in the area.

Among those pleased with the result was local resident Cora Hackett, who was pictured after the work was completed.
