Summary I submit that, if this open space, valuable to maintaining a buffer between the Bodlondeb woods, and Bodlondeb itself, has any sort of houses and/or offices
built there, it will change the rural atmosphere of this delightful road and leafy environment for ever. This is not the type of development for Conwy, or
Deganwy. For example, there is ample room on the old Hotpoint site in Llandudno Junction for commercial developments. And as far as housing needs are
concerned, the two new estates in Junction are excellent, especially the one on the brown site.

13495 Dr T A Rowell [3863] 12 Object
Summary We are residents living in the Cadnant Park, Conwy and are extremely concerned about aspects of the Plan which we consider to be unsound.
Site (CR12) is within, or close to several statutory/non-statutory designations:
1. World Heritage Site
2. Essential Setting of the World Heritage Site
3. Landscape of Outstanding Historic Interest
4. National Park
5. Local Nature Reserve
6. Listed Buildings
7. Site of Special Scientific Interest
8. Biodiversity Areas
9. Green Flag Award
10. Outstanding Quality Landscape Character (LANDMAP)
The allocation of site (CR12) is contrary to national/local guidance and is inconsistent with the approach to site selection.
Change Sought: Remove the employment allocation at Bodlondeb, Conwy
14433 Ms Sara Allardice [3901] 1 Object
Summary I object as follows:
The LDP does not have regard to:
The World Heritage Site Management Plan
The Urban Green Space Habitat Management Plan
Planning Policy Wales
Tourism Action Plan
The plan includes a vision, objectives and policies that all aim to protect and promote historic assets, open green spaces, biodiversity and dtourism. The
allocation of this site to housing and employmenet runs contrary to its own policies and, as such, the allocation does not flow logically from the strategy.
The assessment and allocation of Site CR12 has not been properly executed and should therefore be removed from the LDP.

22349 Welsh Assembly Government (Mr Mark Newey) [2176] 1 Object
Summary Cultural Heritage - It is questioned whether the housing provision within the Essential Setting of the World Heritage Site and within the historic landscape
designation (to the north of the castle and town walls, south of Twthill Farm) sits comfortably within the Strategic Policies for the Cultural Heritage or with the
WO Circulars 60/96 and 61/96 Planning and the Historic Environment: Archaeology and Historic Buildings and Conservation Areas. Other candidate sites
have been dismissed for these reasons.
Change Sought: Review the allocation.
14428 Mrs Elizabeth Mair Pattinson [1167] 1 Object
Summary I object as follows:
The council made a compulsory purchase of the estate to ensure its preservation as an open space for all times.
The landscape quality of the Bodlondeb and Benarth headlands, the twin sentinels surrounding the World Hertiage Site and Conwy Castle and Walls have
always been considered an asset to Conwy.
The setting has always been of immense importance to the castle and the walls both of which are the jewel in the crown of the rich tapestry.
It should be listed as a historical or heritage park.
Change Sought: Delete site
14418 Mr Geoff Byrne [4433] 1 Object
Summary I object on the following grounds:
Land should remain in agricultural use.
There are many empty buildings.
The proposed access point is unsuitable.
The approach to Conwy after has to operate as a reserve road when problems occur on the A55.
The amount of traffic generated would be unsuitable, contravene the covenants, agreements and trust deeds.
The River Conwy is already experiencing problems with clearance of sewage.
The serious silting of the River Conwy.
The only winners will be the developers not the people of Conwy.
Change Sought: This site should be kept as an agricultural site and introduce a facility such as a Community Mixed Farm which would be attractive to visitors and accessible
by foot.
14518 Conwy Civic Society (Dr Michael Senior) [4481] 1 Object
Summary Whilst we have to take the pragmatic view that some development of Conwy's housing and commercial life is essential to the town's future, it is regrettable
that this particular land has been selected for such use. As a continuation from Bodlondeb park land, it forms a good visual break between the Conwy Morfa
built development and the town of Conwy itself on the western approach into town. However it is clear that should such allocation be a requirement under the
LDP, there are serious limitations within the existing settlement boundary to find an alternative site.
Change Sought: Delete site.
