Planning committee
Decided by Rhondda Planning and Development Committee on 13 Aug 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the scheme would reuse a vacant town-centre building, provide homes and retain commercial uses without unacceptable impacts.
- No objections or representations were received from neighbours, while consultees raised no objections subject to conditions or other requirements.
- The committee approved the application in line with the recommendation, subject to an agreement securing two affordable flats for social rent.
