Permission has been given to holiday park planning variations after its fifth time of being on the agenda. Despite a threat of legal action from objectors the two variations relating to caravan size and car park use before occupation were approved by Pembrokeshire County Council committee members of February 9. Committee chairman Cllr Jacob Williams said that a final decision had supposedly been made at November’s meeting and he was “surprised” to see it back again, adding he’d like further information on what had been changed, in light of legal advice, since the last report. Members were told that greater weight had been given to consideration of the principle of the development approved in 2016 as a whole had been given, following case law, to provide a “more robust defence.”
An application to allow larger units at a Pleasant Valley holiday park is back before a planning committee again this week with a threat of judicial review hanging over it An application to allow larger units at a Pleasant Valley holiday park is back before a planning committee again this week with a threat of judicial review hanging over it. Heritage Park’s application to vary planning conditions relating to the size of units and relocation of a public car park was due to be approved in November 2020 following a section 106 agreement being put in place. A report to planning committee on Tuesday (February 9) states that a pre-action letter was received by the council on January 8 indicating the “likely intention by the Stepaside and Pleasant Valley Residents’ Group to submit for judicial review.”
