The officer assessed the proposal against Strategic Plan paragraph 9.5.8 and Business Policy 13, which permit dual residential-tourist use if neighbouring amenities are not compromised.
Business Policy 13
Business Policy 13 states permission will generally be given for private residential properties as tourist accommodation if it does not compromise neighbouring residents' amenities. The officer assessed the end-of-cul-de-sac location next to an aparthotel and found no adverse impact on living conditions, satisfying the policy test.
