Members deferred the Penmaenmawr football club application so that a corrected proposal can be submitted.
The Planning Committee met on 12 August 2026 to consider two planning applications on council land, one in Llanrwst and one at Welsh Mountain Zoo near Colwyn Bay.

Members considered three applications: a block of six flats with parking on Meiriadog Road, Old Colwyn; repairs to the listed Pont Pengwern bridge; and a restaurant and takeaway at Senarth, Deganwy Avenue, Llandudno.

The Planning Committee considered nine planning applications on 11 March 2026 and was minded to grant eight of them, most subject to conditions or a Section 106 agreement (a legal contract requiring the developer to provide things such as affordable homes or pay sums to the council). It was minded to refuse one, a garden cabin at 89 Tan y Bryn Road, Rhos on Sea, and that application will return to a future meeting because the proposed decision goes against officers' advice. 'Minded to' means the committee has agreed in principle, and the final decision is then made under delegated powers by an officer, the Development and Building Control Manager.
At its meeting on 11 February 2026, the Planning Committee considered fourteen planning applications and related consents. For most, Members resolved to be minded to grant permission with conditions, and a council officer will make the final decision under delegated powers. The main items were a replacement care home at Priory Grange, Rhos on Sea, and two linked applications to change the Dolwen Road estate in Old Colwyn, which Members supported subject to a legal agreement being varied.
The Planning Committee considered three planning applications, all under agenda item 5. Members were minded to refuse one application for 13 homes on Cadnant Park, Conwy. They were minded to grant the other two: a 12-month trial dog exercise field at Bryn Rodyn, Old Colwyn, and changes at Colwyn Bay Football Club. 'Minded to' means the committee's view. The Development and Building Control Manager makes the formal decision under delegated powers (powers given to officers to decide without a committee vote).
The Planning Committee met on 10 December 2025 to consider several planning applications. Its main decisions were to reaffirm its intention to refuse 277 homes on land at St George Road, Abergele, and to reaffirm its intention to grant permission for 29 affordable homes at Ty Hapus, Llandudno, even though officers had recommended refusal on flood risk grounds. The Committee agreed in principle to grant permission for most of the other applications, and officers will issue the formal decisions under delegated powers.
On 12 November 2025 the Planning Committee considered eight planning applications, from 277 homes in Abergele to a zoo office in Colwyn Bay. It was minded to refuse the Abergele homes, and minded to approve the Llandudno affordable housing scheme against officers' advice. It deferred a Llandudno house in multiple occupation (HMO, a house rented to several separate households) for a site visit, and agreed in principle to the other five applications. 'Minded to' means the committee agrees in principle, with final decisions following any conditions or legal agreements.

The committee put off two planning applications to a later meeting, a step known as deferral.

The second is a waste transfer station at Plas Gwilym Quarry, Hen Golwyn, deferred until a Preliminary Ecological Appraisal is submitted.
The Planning Committee agreed in principle to approve four planning applications at its meeting on 13 August 2025.
