P-05-731 Land & Access lane at Abercwmboi –

Correspondence from petitioner to Committee, 28.03.18

Thank you for your recent email & attachment. I note that discussions with regard to the development of land adjacent to the land in question are on going.

I am disappointed that even at this stage the Minister is unable to indicate, even provisionally, that his department will consult with the residents directly affected by the proposed sale of the land to rear of 1-67 Park View Terrace, Abercwmboi. It is my understanding that initially this land sale was halted until negotiations re access to the proposed development land (The old Phurnacite site) was concluded. This would have taken a strip of land, running parallel with the existing access road into the Aberamen Industrial Estate which is on the far side of the land to the rear of 1-67 Park View Terrace & thus in no way impacts directly on the residents. The sale of the remaining land would impact negatively for reasons already identified in previous correspondence.

Thank you to the Petitions Committee for following this matter through with such diligence.

Yours

Sue Waterson
