Planning officers at Flintshire Council have recommended that proposals by Redrow Homes for 186 properties on Chester Road in Penymynydd, North Wales are refused. The decision comes after residents living in the area argued that the developments would have a detrimental impact on their village. Residents of the village had previously been told they could not build new homes or extend existing ones without planning permission. Officials also said the developer had provided insufficient detail on surface water management.
Planning officers at Flintshire Council have recommended that proposals by Redrow Homes for 186 properties on Chester Road in Penymynydd, North Wales are refused. The decision comes after residents living in the area argued that the developments would have a detrimental impact on their village. Within the recommendation, Flintshire Council's chief officer for planning and environment said the development could have a negative impact on the community's cohesiveness and would run contrary to national and local planning policies that advise against building within open countryside. Officials also said the developer had provided insufficient detail on surface water management.
