A&R Commissioners' monthly planning comments
Planning Applications - the Arbory and Rushen Parish Commissioners considered the following applications
at their May meeting.
a) 20/00447/B The Coach House Ballagawne Road Ballabeg. Alterations to existing garage to create
additional living space. The Commissioners had no comment to make with regard to this application.
b) 20/00403/B Barn Ballachrink Farm Glen Road Colby. Conversion of existing barn for storage of
motorhomes and storage units. The Commissioners recognised that a number of the farm buildings are no
longer used for agricultural use and recognised that the remaining agricultural barn (the subject of this
application) is a little incongruous. That said, the location is perhaps less busy now than it would have been
when it was a fully functioning farm and the area is generally a quiet rural location. Despite seeing potential
merit in the application, the Commissioners felt unable to support it without having more information about
traffic management and the expected use of the proposed storage aspect of the application. The use of the in
place very narrow Colby Glen Road by large motorhomes was also a concern for the Commissioners and were
the application to be approved the Commissioners would request that a condition imposed requiring vehicles to
access the site via the much wider road leading down from the Roundtable.
