Camping and Caravan Site Developments in the National Park
Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority consultation on Camping and Caravanning Development in the National Park
This consultation is seeking your views on the best way forward for the Authority to address camping and caravan developments in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
The Background Paper sets out a number of options to manage new camping and caravan sites. Having carefully considered the options, the Authority’s preferred option is to introduce an Article 4 Direction to remove permitted development rights for 28-day camping and caravan sites (Option 3). Alongside this Officers of the Authority consider that increasing engagement with permitted development site operators, particularly Exempted Organisations by introducing a voluntary Code of Conduct / Working Protocol could improve and enhance standards and effective working practices (Option 2).
The consultation period will run until 5 p.m. on Friday, 20 September 2024.
The Authority welcomes your views on the proposed options to inform the future action that the Authority will take.
Please complete the online questionnaire with your views on the proposed options. Alternatively, representations could be made in writing to the Strategic Policy Team, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, Llanion Park, Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire, SA72 6DY or by email to devplans@pembrokeshirecoast.org.uk
If you have any queries regarding the documents or you need more information, call 01646 624800 to contact the Strategic Policy team at Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority or email devplans@pembrokeshirecoast.org.uk. Paper copies can be provided, at a small cost.
All representations will be acknowledged and will be made public. All representations will be reported to the National Park Authority. To be informed of the outcome of the Authority meeting, representors are advised to include their contact details in the online questionnaire. Alternatively, you can request to be included in the Authority’s mailing list by emailing the Strategic Policy team at devplans@pembrokeshirecoast.org.uk.
