The proposal involves replacing the existing polycarbonate roof of a rear conservatory (3.7m x 3.3m x 2.7m) at 8 Westlands Close, Ramsey – a bungalow in a predominantly residential area – with 'Supalite' metrotile tiles in Burntumber colour to match the main dwelling's interlocking red tile roof.

The officer assessed the key issues as the impact on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and the surrounding area/street scene.
General Policy 2
GP2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character; and does not harm local residents' amenity or locality character. The officer tested the roof replacement against these criteria, finding the matching tiles and minor scale create a uniform appearance that enhances the property without adverse impacts.
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 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
