I don't think this plan is appropriate at all.
This plan should be cancelled and a more appropriate site found elsewhere that is more suitable.
For the reasons set out above, the allocation of the site at Llangan for additional Gypsy and Traveller pitches is not justified and is inconsistent with the Council’s own policy framework and previous legal commitments relating to the land.
The site should therefore be removed from the Replacement Local Development Plan and alternative sites identified which better meet the criteria set out in the Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Assessment and Policy MD18.
New site grants are available and cost should not be a material planning consideration.

I object because there is a legally binding agreement from 2017 involving the VOG council, Llangan Community Council, and the 'ONE' traveller family, although it is unenforced. The site does not meet VOG guidelines due to poor access, flood risk, inadequate drainage, lack of public footpaths, street lighting, and public transport, making it dangerous. It is located in a special landscape area near a conservation site and contradicts VOG's sustainability objectives by increasing vehicular traffic on poorly maintained rural lanes which hampers access to local facilities and emergency services.
