Planning application

PL/09868

Grasslands at the Southern Boundary of Dinefwr Park, Dinefwr Park, Llandeilo

Granted Carmarthenshire Full planning permission

Proposal

The National Trust have developed a vision to achieve high nature status and favourable condition of the designated features on Dinefwr NNR floodplain, and the 4 Rivers project is supporting delivery of a number of key actions, including: (i) Light touch management of scrub and reedmace encroachment in 2 oxbows to retain more permanent open water habitat in these features (ii) Light touch widening/deepening of some of the existing ephemeral pools which have become silted up – adding to the seasonally wet open water habitats on the floodplain (iii) Creation of a new large pond feature to offset the loss of open water habitat as some of the oxbows naturally succeed to swamp communities (iv) Advising on management and restoration of floodplain meadow habitats, with input from the Floodplain Meadows Partnership (v) Reinstatement of some areas of fencing across the site This Planning Application deals with points (ii) and (iii) which relate to proposed excavation works in the floodplain. The other elements of work (vegetation management and fencing) are to be delivered as a separate package of work and are not subject to Planning Consent

What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within five years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

About full applications applications

How this application type works

A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.
