Preferred Strategy
The Vale of Glamorgan Council is preparing a Replacement Local Development Plan. The Replacement Local Development Plan will guide development in the Vale of Glamorgan until 2036.
The Vale of Glamorgan Council has published and consulted on a Preferred Strategy for the Replacement Local Development Plan which seeks to establish its key aims and, in doing so, identify how much and where certain forms of development should be located.
Within the Preferred Strategy, St Athan is positioned within the identified Strategic Growth Area and is identified as a settlement that, due to its sustainability, is a suitable focus for housing growth.
The Preferred Strategy identifies two Key Sites in St Athan. These are ‘Land to the West of St Athan’ which is being promoted by Hallam Land and ‘Land at Church Farm’ which is being promoted by Barratt David Wilson Homes.
The Preferred Strategy has received political support from the Vale of Glamorgan's elected members at a Full Council meeting has received support from the Welsh Government.
Purpose of this Consultation
In the period between the consultation on the Replacement Local Development’s Preferred Strategy in Autumn / Winter 2023 and the publication of the Deposit which is due in the first half of 2025, Hallam Land and Barratt David Wilson Homes are keen to seek the views of local residents.
Both Key Sites have been endorsed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council and have the in-principle support from the Welsh Government. The purpose of this consultation is therefore to seek the views of local residents as to the forms of developments and type of land uses that they wish to see be delivered across the two Key Sites.
Consultation Process
The tabs on this website provide contextual information about the Preferred Strategy and both Hallam Land and Barratt David Wilson Homes as site promoters, as well as information about both Key Sites.
A drop-in public consultation event is taking place on 16th October between 4pm and 8pm. This is to take place at St Athan Community Centre, Glyndwr Avenue, CF62 4PP. There will be representatives of both Hallam Land and Barratt David Wilson Homes at this event.
