Planning Consultancy Offers Support to Landowners in Anglesey
Cadnant Planning is working closely with landowners and developers following Isle of Anglesey County Council's 'Call for Sites' – a key step in shaping the new Local Development Plan (LDP), which will guide the county's future growth and development through to 2039.
The council is inviting submissions of land that may be suitable for housing, employment, community, or recreational use, as well as sites that should be protected for their environmental or cultural value.
All submissions must be made using the local planning authority's standardised form before the extended deadline of August 4 this year.
Cadnant Planning – based in Conwy and Pulford, near Wrexham and Chester – is supporting clients throughout the process, from site identification and constraints mapping to preparing supporting documents and liaising with the planning department.
Managing Director Sioned Edwards said:
'The call for sites is a valuable opportunity for landowners and developers to put forward land they feel has development potential, whether for housing, employment, or community uses.
'The council has extended the consultation period, which gives people more time to come forward and explore their options.'
She added:
'We're already working with a range of clients across the Island to assess and promote their land.
'If you own land – particularly near existing settlements or development boundaries, or previously developed land – and are considering future development or sale, we'd encourage you to get in touch as soon as possible.
'Even greenfield sites can be considered if they're well-located. Our team can manage the whole process and help ensure your submission is presented in the strongest possible way.
'Sites that we promoted across the Island during the preparation of the last LDP have since been developed and have delivered much needed affordable housing.'
To discuss a potential site or request more information, email info@cadnantplanning.co.uk, visit the website www.cadnantplanning.co.uk, or follow @cadnantplanning on social media.

Pembrokeshire village pub conversion to house refused
In a partly retrospective application to Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Ms G Key, through agent Evans Banks Planning Limited, sought permission for the conversion of the former Taberna Inn and associated flat, Herbrandston Village, Milford Haven, to one residential dwelling. Work started in March 2021 but has not been finished. A supporting statement through the agent said: 'We understand that the property was purchased by the applicant in November 2020 and operated for four months as a public house on the ground floor. 'The property has therefore remained closed as a public house since that date and only used for residential purposes by the applicant. This current application therefore seeks to regularise the situation and enable the properly to be used as a single residential dwelling.' More: Fears closure of fire-ravaged village school being 'steamrolled' through More: Pembrokeshire beaches named some of the cleanest in the UK It says the loss of the pub to the village will not be felt as strongly as elsewhere as Herbrandston has an alternative venue, Herbrandston Hub, which opened in February 2020, and acts a successful community venue and centre for the settlement's sports teams. It adds: 'The Pandemic had and continues to have many impacts on people's lives and also their livelihoods, no more so than in the leisure and hospitality industries. With socialising patterns having now changed, many village public houses have found it impossible to continue to operate at anywhere near a viable level.' Local community council Hebrandston objected to the proposal on the grounds the village has already lost amenities in recent years, adding: 'The councillors feel strongly that the community needs and deserves the Taberna to remain as a public house and restaurant. 'The Community Hub in the village, that is mentioned in the application as an alternative to the Taberna is not a suitable replacement. It is only open part time, i.e. Thursday/Friday evenings, and weekends. It is run by an association of volunteers and is primarily used by the sports teams that use the field. It does not have a food licence, and they have no desire to open any restaurant.' An officer report recommending refusal said: 'Given the lack of evidence justifying the loss of this community facility and guest houses within the small community of Herbranston, it is considered that the proposed development would lead to a detrimental reduction in the existing level and range of facilities available to Park residents and visitors, contrary to the Local Development Plan's aim to encourage the retention and provision of such facilities.' The application was refused on grounds including it would 'result in the unacceptable loss of an existing community facility,' and 'the applicant has failed to demonstrate the potential for continued use of the facility as unviable'.

Japanese PM Shigeru Ishiba vows to stay in power despite growing calls to resign
Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has vowed to remain in power to oversee the implementation of a new Japan-US tariff agreement, despite media speculation and growing calls for him to resign after the historic defeat of his governing party. Mr Ishiba met heavyweights from his Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and former prime ministers Taro Aso, Fumio Kishida and Yoshihide Suga at party headquarters. He told reporters afterwards that they did not discuss his resignation or a new party leadership contest, but only the election results, voters' dissatisfaction and the urgent need to avoid party discord. Despite his business-as-usual demeanour, Mr Ishiba is under increasing pressure to bow out after the LDP and junior coalition partner Komeito lost their majority in Sunday's election in the 248-member upper house, the smaller and less powerful of Japan's two-chamber parliament, shaking his grip on power. It came after a loss in the more powerful lower house in October, and so his coalition now lacks a majority in both houses of parliament, making it even more difficult for his government to pass policies and worsening Japan's political instability. Mr Ishiba says he intends to stay on to tackle pressing challenges, including tariff talks with the US, so as not to create a political vacuum despite calls from inside and outside his party for a quick resignation. Mr Ishiba 'keeps saying he is staying on. What was the public's verdict in the election all about?', said Yuichiro Tamaki, head of the surging Democratic Party for the People (DPP). At the LDP, a group of younger politicians led by Yasutaka Nakasone started a petition drive seeking Mr Ishiba's early resignation and renewal of party leadership. 'We all have a sense of crisis and think the election results were an ultimatum from the voters,' he said. Japanese media reported that Mr Ishiba is expected to soon announce plans to step down in August. The conservative Yomiuri newspaper said in an extra edition on Wednesday that Mr Ishiba had decided to announce his resignation by the end of July after receiving a detailed report from his chief trade negotiator, Ryosei Akazawa, on the impact of the US tariffs on the Japanese economy, paving the way for a new party leader. Mr Ishiba denied the report and said that he wants to focus on the US trade deal, which covers more than 4,000 goods affecting many Japanese producers and industries. He welcomed the new agreement, which places tariffs at 15% on Japanese cars and other goods imported into the US from Japan, down from the initial 25%. Still, local media are already speculating about possible successors. Among them are ultraconservative former economic security minister Sanae Takaichi, who lost to Mr Ishiba in September. Another conservative ex-minister, Takayuki Kobayashi, and agriculture minister Shinjiro Koizumi, the son of former popular prime minister Junichiro Koizumi, are also seen as potential challengers. In Sunday's election, voters frustrated with price increases exceeding the pace of wage hikes, especially younger people who have long felt ignored by the ruling government's focus on senior voters, rapidly turned to the emerging conservative DPP and right-wing populist Sanseito party. None of the opposition parties have shown an interest in forming a full-fledged alliance with the governing coalition, but they have said they are open to co-operating on policy.
