The site is within a mixed-use area zoned for office/residential use under the Ramsey Local Plan, making the principle of tourist accommodation acceptable in principle.
General Policy 2
Requires development in zoning to respect site surroundings, avoid adverse amenity/landscape/traffic impacts, and provide satisfactory standards including parking. The officer confirmed compliance as the non-physical change respects the mixed-use zoning, has no greater impact than current residential use, and includes existing parking with no highway objections.
Business Policy 13
Permits tourist accommodation in private residential properties if neighbouring amenities are not compromised. The officer found the use acceptable as its impact matches permanent residential occupation in a predominantly residential mixed-use area.
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.
