*This figure is for the Aberystwyth Area (as defined in Review of Potential Employment Sites in the Aberystwyth Area (NLP, 2010)) – with recognition that the provision should be met as far as possible within or near to Aberystwyth, Llanbadarn Fawr, Waunfawr and Penparcau.**The range for convenience goods indicates a requirement for further studies to improve future predictions.

housing), have therefore been allocated to help promote lively centres as well as to reduce the need to travel to visit a range of facilities.
Utilities
3.2.27 Aberystwyth is one of the few areas on Ceredigion that has access to a mains gas supply.
3.2.28 For site constraints and specific requirements which will be sought in relation to water and sewage matters see the Council's website.
3.2.29 The Allocated Sites Schedule (Table 03.02) sets out the constraints relating to specific allocations and how they might be mitigated.
Education
3.2.30 Aberystwyth is an important centre of learning, providing for primary, secondary and tertiary levels of education. Aberystwyth University is a centre of National Importance. The long term property strategy of the University is to consolidate its assets around the Penglais campus, and is therefore moving away from satellite campuses and buildings such as the Llanbadarn Campus and the Old College building.
3.2.31 The Llanbadarn Campus has been allocated as a Mixed Use Site (M0305; see Proposals Map and Allocated Sites Schedule, Table 03.02) for employment, education and residential uses. The educational element is designated use to help meet any needs that come forward during the plan period.
3.2.32 The Old College Building has not been allocated as the LDP will take a flexible approach to potential uses. Owing to the historic and cultural importance of the building, reflected in its status as a Grade I listed building, proposed developments would have to be of a high quality design and of a use that would help strengthen the role of Aberystwyth's seafront as an attractive tourist and leisure destination. Conversion to residential only is therefore unlikely to be acceptable.
3.2.33 The National Library of Wales, which is located adjacent to the Penglais Campus is also an institution of national significance. The building is an important visual aspect of Aberystwyth's townscape and its setting should therefore be protected.
3.2.34 Other local and regional facilities include Coleg Ceredigion, Penglais Secondary School, Penweddig Secondary School, Hyfforddiant Ceredigion facilities and five Primary Schools.
3.2.35 Currently the Council is reviewing education provision across the County and the report ‘Developing Education in Ceredigion’ has been produced. Currently there are no firm plans concerning the schools located within this Settlement Group, however the report and any future plans will need to be kept under review as they may have land use implications.

character of this location and limit the urbanisation of the site. This should include at least a 1m buffer from the canopy/bank, depending on the root structure.
Protected species records on site. Appropriate surveys and reports will be required with proposals and species, habitats and ecological connectivity protected and managed in accordance with national policies and Policies DM14 and DM15. In particular, bat, large mammal (badger, polecat and brown hare) and reptile surveys may be required.
Biodiversity enhancements, e.g. providing spaces within the building for bats, tree planting etc. should be included as part of any development proposal in accordance with Policies DM14 and DM15.
Open space will be sought on site. This should be provided as Communal Accessible Natural Greenspace, Equipped Natural Play Space and Informal Recreation Space and a Multi Use Games Area see Policy LU24.
Problems with sewage management have been identified for this site. Developers can either wait for Dhr Cymru/Welsh Water to acquire funding or could progress the site m advance of Dhr Cymru/Welsh Water funding through the provisions of Section 98 -101 Water Industry Act (sewer requisition) or Section 106 Town & Country Planning Act.
Development will need to contribute to the improvement of local highways to ensure development is possible.
Site layout should include provision to gain access to the land to the east, which may be needed to accommodate further development during future plan periods. The inclusion of adjoining land is not at this point guaranteed as it would need to undergo assessment as to its suitability for development.

The inclusion of adjoining land is not at this point guaranteed as it would need to undergo assessment as to its suitability for development.

| The site has trees and hedgerows to the north, west (potentially an 'important hedgerow') and south. These will need to be protected and managed in accordance with Policies DM10, DM15 and DM20 to minimise effects to biodiversity and to help retain the rural character of this location and limit the urbanisation of the site. This should include at least a 1m buffer from the canopy/bank, depending on the root structure. |
| There's a ditch that runs to the west of the site which should be protected and managed in accordance with Policies DM15 and DM22. This should include at least a 7m buffer from development. |
| There is an area of rush pasture to the north and patches of semi-improved grassland that should be protected and managed in accordance with Policy DM15. |
| Appropriate surveys and reports will be required with proposals and species, habitats and ecological connectivity protected in accordance with national policies and Policies DM14 and DM15. In particular, bat, amphibian and reptile surveys may be required. |
| Biodiversity enhancements, e.g. planting of hedgebanks, providing spaces within the building for bats, tree planting etc. should be included as part of any development proposal in accordance with Policies DM14 and DM15. |
| Additional open space will be sought on site. This should be provided as Communal Accessible Natural Greenspace, Equipped Natural Play Space and Informal Recreation Space and a Multi Use Games Area, see Policy LU24. |
| Development will need to ensure that existing open space is protected and good access is maintained. An existing community provision is located on part of this allocated site. Policy LU22 seeks to protect existing community provisions. Any development of this allocated site would therefore need to accord with Policy LU22. |
| The Allocation is crossed by a public water main for which protection measures are required to allow Dwr Cymru/Welsh Water to perform its statutory duties. Protection Measures are either in the form of easement, which prevents development near the public asset, or diversion of the asset at the developer's expense. |
