Plans to build flats and commercial units at a former Italian restaurant site in Llanelli remain in limbo nearly two years after they were submitted. Carmarthenshire Council's planning application for the the old Altalia eaterie and two adjacent units has been called in by the Welsh Government on flooding grounds.
It means the scheme is on hold pending the outcome of the call-in process. A hearing has taken place.
The council has demolished the restaurant building - on the corner of Stepney Street and Market Street - and two units to the side which were occupied by Vision Express and a YMCA charity shop. In its place, the authority envisions a three-storey building, with five ground-floor commercial units and 10 flats above, and parking spaces at the rear.
