Decision & Reasoning

Approved19 August 2020

The officer considered the proposal against General Policy 2 (GP2) of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016, which requires development to respect the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, s…

Policies Assessed (1)

GP2

General Policy 2

GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and other policies if it respects site/surroundings (siting, layout, scale, form, design), does not adversely affect landscape/townscape character, does not harm local amenity, and considers energy efficiency. The officer tested the tile replacement against these criteria, finding it enhances appearance, causes no amenity or character harm, and improves energy performance. The site is in a Predominantly Residential area per Onchan Local Plan.

Conditions (2)

1
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
2
Materials - tile colour
The colour of the tiles must match those on the main house. Reason: to ensure that the roofing is sympathetic to the building to which it would be attached.
