operations in regards to the deposit of hardcore etc. So as to raise the level
of the site without planning permission.

Feb 2004. Land acquired by Eaden Homes Limited

it without consent.
May 2005 - further confirmation of safeguarded consent in exchange of emails
between Council and Eaden Homes
31 - 03 - 2011 Letter - Ynys Mon Council - Planning Regulatory Services Manager

confirming planning consent has been 'safeguarded'.
May 2012 - Counsels Opinion – Vincent Fraser qc - (especially para's 13 - 16)
May 2012 - Lands Tribunal hearing and 6 June 2012 Decision
The issue of compensation for injurious affection was made by Eaden Homes
against Welsh Water for the effect on value of their works in 2004. Lands
Tribunal Decision held that:
(i) the planning permission was a full permission and was not, in relation to
any part of the development permitted, an outline permission.
(ii) In relation to the 38 plots the permission was for their layout and not
for the erection of houses upon them
2015 - 2016
Datrys Model Engineering carried out work to assess consented site levels.
Level agreed with the council engineers in Oct Landfill and site level works
undertaken.
Done and completed to about 80% of the 1983 permission levels, less top
fill/working levels.
Work undertaken by Grays Waste Management with appropriate approvals and
certification.
Material relocated was waste stone rather than quarried stone. Clerical error
on forms documented incorrect tonnage, and a temporally lapsed license invoked
a charge from the nrw.
Nrw took enforcement action and served appropriate notices.
Nb there are no issues at the quality quantity, and content of everything that
has actually been deposited on the site, and the licenses held over the years
were more than enough for the total tonnages deposited.
13 July 2017 - Letter - Ynys Mon Council - Chief Planning Officer
Refers again to planning consent granted for 83 dwellings on 29th April 1983
and site levels.
11 May 2018 - Refusal of application for a retrospective environmental permit
Natural Resources Wales refuses T2 permit to deposit further waste stone on
the site. (nb there would be no issues on quarried stone being used instead).
A full fra would be required to overturn this nonsensical decision.
November 2018. Appeal lodged. By Eaden Homes
24 June 2019 Appeal Decision - The Planning Inspectorate
Subject: Appeal against a decision by National Resources Wales to refuse an
earlier application to import a further 20, 000 cubic metres of waste material
to raise land levels to 3. 4m above Ordnance datum
Decision: Appeal dismissed. Token out of court settlement reached. (nb this is
personal to the current directors and liability does not transfer with the
land).
2020 outstanding issues
nrw require a flood risk assessment be undertaken to demonstrate that surface
water run - off will satisfactorily drain off the site into the sea, and that
the site is protected from flooding from the rear via the area known as the
'Inland Sea'.
Recent (2020) high winds storms and tides have flooded the road to the front
of the site, but the sea levels came nowhere near the existing site levels,
let alone the proposed finished site levels.
Eaden Homes do not believe that there would be any issues in using 'virgin
material' to complete the remaining works of final levelling.
**Services**
It is understood that Transco have supplied a gas main into the entrance of
the site, which work was undertaken as part of a 'material start' to the on -
site works in 1984 - 5
