New affordable homes in Bodelwyddan get the green light despite concerns about local services.
Adra, a big housing group, asked for permission. They want to build on Abergele Road. This land is by Maes Owen. Council officers suggested approval.
Council members talked about it at a meeting. Some worried about the area’s resources. A council member mentioned local doctor and dentist shortages. He thinks the hospital might see more patients.
The chair, Mark Young, said it was a hard decision. Many people need affordable places to live. Over half struggle with housing costs. He also said the NHS needs updates on these issues.
These new, affordable homes are needed. Assessments support this idea. The plans include roads and walkways. They also include a pumping station.
Residents worried about roads and the school. They also mentioned nature. The site will have apartments and houses. There will be one, two, three, and four-bedroom houses.
They will use brick, render, and solar panels. Rejeev Metri suggested the committee approve the plans. James Elson agreed with the suggestion. Sixteen voted yes, two voted no. The project passed.
