General Policy 2
General Policy 2 applies to proposals in accordance with land-use zoning in residential areas, requiring developments to respect site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design (b); not adversely affect surrounding character (c); and not harm local residents' amenity or locality character (g). The officer tested the porch's front projection and visibility against these, finding it acceptable due to small scale, matching materials, and prevalence of similar porches locally. Supported by Strategic Plan 8.12.1 presumption for extensions without adverse impacts.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
Materials matching
Where applicable, all external facing and roofing materials to be used in the construction shall match those of the existing building in respect of their type, colour and finish. Reason: In the interests of the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area in accordance with General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
