Plans for 28 new small business units at Ty Du, Nelson
It is hoped the project, if approved, will provide 'modern, light industrial units' for 'small-sized start-up [or] trade-counter uses', according to planning agents at Knight Frank.
The Ty Du site has been earmarked for significant development in the council's Local Development Plan, and if approved the new units would follow on from the completion of other business units in 2021.
Separate proposals for 169 new homes are also in the pipeline for the wider Ty Du area, and received the council's support in late 2024 – but also requires Welsh Government approval because the project is classed as a 'major' development.
The new proposals for the 28 small business units would 'provide a flexible mix of employment uses so that the site can react dynamically to market demand', the agents said.
The new units could also provide more than 50 jobs, according to the application form for the proposal.
The application is currently out for consultation, and can be viewed on the Caerphilly County Borough Council website under reference 25/0477/FULL.

Top UK restaurant chain shuts ALL its sites as it goes bust after nearly a decade in business
A TOP UK restaurant chain has shut the doors on all its sites due to going bust after nearly a decade in business. The restaurant, which had branches in Exeter, Taunton and Cardiff, entered liquidation, having to close its doors and leave some staff unpaid. 5 5 5 Eat the Bird gained popularity as a restaurant after first opening in Taunton in 2017. It describes itself as a "multi-award winning burger joint", and even bagged the Street Food Dish of the Year award in 2023. Two more branches launched in 2022, first in Exeter and then in Cardiff. The company, however, failed to pay its meat supplier, Fairfax Meadow Europe Ltd, and closed down completely on July 22. Under the ownership of Daniel Aldridge, Eat the Bird must pay Fairfax Meadow from its assets in accordance with a court order mandate. Mr Aldridge confirmed that several staff members are also yet to recieve their wages after the sudden closure. He told Somerset Country Gazette these staff will be paid. "I am working closely with one of the directors, and we are working hard to get the situation sorted," Mr Aldridge said. The company's struggles and subsequent closure have been attributed to both escalating costs and the aftermath of Covid-19. The businessman added: "We were weighed down by the hidden nasties post-COVID. "We have so many empty shops in Taunton, we need them filled. Pub chain collapses into administration as SIX sites shut their doors for good and 159 job losses "It takes people like me to get them sorted, it's no good commenting on a shop's closure via Facebook." People nevertheless took to Facebook to express their shock at the news that the much-loved restaurant had closed. One Taunton resident posted after learning about the closure: "That is very sad. "Great staff, great food. "I am very disappointed. "Best wishes to all of the employees who have looked after us so well over the last few years." Another added: "One of my favourite places to eat in Taunton. "Very sad." A third chimed in: "Gutting! "I love that place." Eat the Bird's shutting down comes just a week after a popular online food critic praised the branch in Exeter. Danny from Rate My Takeaway's YouTube channel sampled the restaurant's Dirty Donald and My Big Fat Greek in a clip that has raked up more than 95,000 views. He described the food as "absolutely fantastic". The branch in Exeter had actually been planning to move into a shopping centre last autumn, which became delayed last-minute. 5 5
