Councillors Jayne Cowan and Adrian Robson held an open meeting last night to discuss the amended plans, and how to best oppose them. Adrian briefly explained the new plans before opening the meeting up for the floor to comment.
The packed out church hall saw a range of comments discussed, including overdevelopment, peoples’ property being over looked, access, transport, wildlife and so on. There were a wide range of people at the meeting – young and old – and one of the youngest attendees addressed the meeting, arguing that the loss of the Pantmawr Inn would be terrible because the Inn provides a social space for young people to meet up, and celebrate various events, for example, Halloween. “It’s a place for children to play as well”.
Jayne Cowan said that she thought the amended plans were a “complete overdevelopment of the site”.
The Councillors reminded those present that objection letters must be sent to the Council by 10th January 2008, ready for the planning meeting on 20th February.
There was no representation from developers Charles Church at the meeting, however, the Councillors did say that they could put any questions to Charles Church if necessary.
