Application Reference: 18/00572/B

Location: 7 Mull View, Kirk Michael, IM6 1AQ

Description: Alterations and additions to property including raising pitch of roof, installation of dormer, erection of larger garden room and extension to rear of garage

Highway Comments: The proposal would provide additional living accommodation to the dwelling. The existing garage is 2.6m wide, 6m long with a 2.3m wide garage door. This is slightly below the minimum single garage size of 3m x 6m with a 2.4m wide door in the 'Manual for Manx Roads' design guide to be counted as a parking space. However, it is still considered to be of a sufficient size to accommodate a parked car. The development would result in the garage being extended to 9.1m in length which would still be able to accommodate a parked car.

There would be no changes to the existing site access and driveway which can accommodate a parked car. The site parking demand would remain the same for the development and therefore the proposals should not create any new highway issues.

Highway Services does not oppose the application.

Recommendation: DNO
