Go ahead for restoration at Llanell Library
Planning permission has been granted for restoration works at Llanelli Library.
Libraries and Heritage Manager Dewi Thomas applied to the county council for consent for repair and restoration work, partial enclosure to the internal courtyard and minor internal alterations at the library in Vaughan Street, Llanelli.
The proposed works are also subject to a separate Listed Building Consent application which has been recommended for approval by the authority’s conservation manager, and has been sent to the Welsh Assembly Government for consideration due to the interest that Carmarthenshire County Council has in the application.
An officers’ report to last week’s meeting of the planning committee said: “Although the structural works are fairly substantial they should ensure a much longer life for the building. The other works will help transform the library into a facility more in keeping with current and future public needs, and enable a better flow of movement throughout the building but at the same time respecting as much as possible the current layout.”
The planning committee approved the application.
