Decision Notice

Cornerstone Architects 79 Parliament Street Ramsey Isle Of Man IM8 1AQ

TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Registered Building) Regulations 2013

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to APPROVE an application by Bishop Barrow Charity, Ref 16/00611/CON, for the Registered Building consent for the installation of a platform lift between existing Stair Lobby and Theatre (Registered Building Nos. 185) at Kings Court Theatre King Williams College Castletown Isle Of Man IM9 1TP subject to compliance with the following condition(s) and notes (if any) :

• 1. The works hereby granted registered building consent shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this consent.

Reason: To comply with paragraph 2(2)(a) of schedule 3 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1999 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented registered building consents.

• 2. The lift door shall be coloured RAL-5012 blue and retained as such thereafter unless otherwise agreed in advance with the Department.

Reason: The colour is appropriate for the use of the lift itself and also in the context of grey-painted detailing in the lobby. Other colours would require fresh assessment - and a stainless steel finish would be inappropriate for this historic interior.

The development hereby approved relates to Drawings 01, 50 and 100, all date-stamped as having been received 26th May 2016.

NOTE Notwithstanding the Registered Building Consent hereby issued, no Registered Building Consent exists for the installation of the chair store and none is hereby granted for this.

Reason: No assessment of this element of the scheme has been made in the absence of sufficient detail to so do, but this condition does not prejudice an application seeking Consent for the installation of such a store.

Date of Issue: 15th July 2016

Interim Director of Planning and Building Control
