I refer to the current consultation on the RLDP and wish to raise my objection to your plans for a Retail Site in Llanmaes Village which is currently in the hands of the WG who are dealing with a Call-In which has been referred to PEDW.
I strongly object to the idea and support the report of the Planning Officer which REFUSED the building of a Supermarket on this site. In my opinion, suggesting that this area be included as a Retail site in the RLDP is changing the Planning Department’s view in making their decision. Llanmaes will, in May 2027, become part of a new rural ward made up with other Villages. It will be no part of Llantwit Major, I understood previously that you had highlighted a site within the Town boundary of Llantwit Major, but that idea appears to have been withdrawn.
May I suggest that of you are looking for a site, you investigate the site on the Eglwys Brewis Road where the old Naafi Shop stood for many years which belongs to WG. In my opinion this would be a perfect site as many houses have been build in that area with no shop in close proximity of these homes, and residents have to travel into St Athan Village or Llantwit Major.
