Planning Committee

The Committee granted the application, subject to the conditions in the report.

Some sentences of this summary are missing in English, because an older automatic check removed them from the English only. The Welsh version has them.

1. Up to 205 homes at Church Farm, Lisvane (hybrid application)

   Decided

   The Committee granted the application, subject to the conditions outlined in the report.

   Why

   A hybrid application has two parts. Phase 1 is a full application for 61 homes, so its details are settled now. Phase 2 is an outline application for up to 144 homes. The development also includes drainage attenuation (features that hold back surface water), open space and highway works. The minute does not record the reasons for the decision or any debate. No report was provided, so the recommendation cannot be stated.

   Based on the minutes

Written by AI from the council's minutes and reports. Sentences with a number or name that can't be found in those papers are removed automatically, but mistakes are still possible. Councils publish no word-for-word record of meetings, so this says what was decided and why. Read the official papers to be sure.

   Amendment Sheet and Late Representations

   Papers: Amendment Sheet and Late Representations

Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
