INTRODUCTION
Under The Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (Wales) (Amendment) Order 2016 Part 1A Section 2B and subject to The Planning Applications (Temporary Modifications and Disapplication) (Wales) (Coronavirus) Order 2020, those proposing major development are required to consult with members of the public and community and statutory bodies prior to submitting their planning application to the Local Planning Authority.
This website provides details of the proposed development of the Tax Office Site at Ty Glas, Llanishen, Cardiff for a mixed-use scheme including housing, retirement apartments, a care home facility, employment uses and floorspace that could accommodate a doctors surgery, dentist or nursery. Cannon Capital Developments Limited (Cannon) intend on submitting an outline planning application for this development following this pre application consultation period. You are invited to make comments to the Cannon project team for us to consider before we submit the planning application.
It is important to note that this exercise is entirely separate from the statutory consultation that Cardiff Council will conduct once the applications have been submitted.
Submitting comments to this consultation process will not preclude you from making future comments to Cardiff Council as part of their separate statutory consultation exercise.
THE DEVELOPMENT
The application seeks outline planning permission (with all matters reserved except for strategic access) for the redevelopment of the tax office site, which will comprise a mix of uses including up to 250 dwellings, 70 retirement apartments and a care home facility with up to 70 beds. It will also include up to 1,858 sqm of employment units (Use Class B1) and up to 600m sqm of Use Class D1 floorspace that could accommodate a doctors surgery, dentist or nursery.
The description of the development is as follows:
Demolition of all existing buildings. Outline application (with all matters reserved except for strategic access) for the development of up to 250 dwellings (Use Class C3), up to 70 retirement apartments (Use Class C3), a care home facility with up to 70 beds (Use Class C2), up to 1,858 sqm of employment units (Use Class B1a, B1b, B1c) and up to 600 sqm to accommodate a doctors surgery/nursery/dentist (Use Class D1) as well as associated vehicular, cyclist and pedestrian access, engineering and infrastructure works, landscaping, open spaces and sustainable urban drainage.
HOW TO COMMENT
The 28-day statutory pre-application consultation has now ended and we are carefully considering all the comments received. A planning application for the proposed development will be submitted to Cardiff Council in due course. The planning application will include a pre-application consultation report. This will set out all the comments that we have received and what changes have been made to the proposed development and/or application documents in response.
