The consultation will go live on the consultation portal from 16th June 2025.
Background information
The RLDP will help shape the Vale of Glamorgan for the next 15 years (from 2021 to 2036). It will help us to decide what developments will and will not be permitted at different locations and highlight areas that we need to protect.
A public consultation was undertaken between December 2023 and February 2024 on the Preferred Strategy for the RLDP. The Preferred Strategy sets out the Vision, Issues, Objectives and broad spatial strategy for the Vale of Glamorgan. It also included 5 key housing-led sites in Barry, Dinas Powys, Rhoose and St Athan. The RLDP Preferred Strategy was considered by full Council in September 2024 where it was agreed that the strategy should form the basis of the Deposit RLDP, the next stage in plan preparation.
For sites to be included in the Deposit Plan, it must be demonstrated that they are deliverable i.e. there are no barriers to development that would stop them from coming forward within the plan period. There are currently concerns around the deliverability of the key site proposed to the North East of Barry and it is therefore proposed not to include this site as an allocation in the Deposit Plan.
This informal public consultation will seek views on three alternative sites that could potentially replace the original key site in Barry.
