Planning application 22/01083/B has previously been considered by the Council’s Environmental Services Committee which resulted in an objection being raised relating to the tree planting mitigation measures proposed along with some concerns relating to traffic. We note that the applicant has submitted additional information relating to traffic which appears to have addressed many of the traffic concerns subject to certain conditions being applied to any approval granted. Prior to providing our final comments on this application we wish to review any amendments relating to tree planting and biodiversity and will revert back to the planning department once these have been considered.
We also note PA 23/00756/B, having now had the opportunity to look at the plans for this application we would kindly ask that the applicant provides further clarity on the bin and recycling arrangements proposed. The plans show an existing communal bin storage area however as the applicant has proposed to increase the number of residential units to four, we would now kindly ask the applicant to demonstrate that there is sufficient space available to accommodate the correct number of bins and recycling receptacles within the curtilage of the property. Once this additional information has been made available we will provide our comments on the application.
Kindest regards,
P.O. BOX NO. 2, TOWN HALL, RIDGEWAY STREET, DOUGLAS, ISLE OF MAN, IM99 1AD TELEPHONE: (01624) 696300
