Decided by Blaenau Gwent Planning Committee on 4 Sept 2025.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers recommended approval because marketing evidence and monitoring information outweighed the policy conflict and supported the town centre’s vitality.
- Objectors raised concerns about the loss of retail space, takeaway concentration, health, and unhealthy food choices.
- The committee voted six to one to grant permission subject to the report’s conditions.
