Planning committee

Decided by Cardiff Planning Committee on 30 Jul 2026.

Approved

As officers recommended.

  • Officers advised approval because the scheme would provide supported housing on a sustainable brownfield site and meet an identified housing need.
  • Three neighbouring occupiers objected, citing the building’s scale, privacy, light, parking, drainage, security and other concerns.
