Tel 01624 685950 Atelier Kruger Architecture Ltd 19 Kensington Road Douglas IM1 3EP TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Mr Dan Jespersen, Ref 20/00593/MCH, for the Minor changes application for PA 18/00266/B involving the addition of two columns to support first floor balcony and changes to balustrading at Waverley Spaldrick Port Erin Isle Of Man IM9 6PD . Any reasons or notes which apply to this decision are set out below. Approval is sought to add two columns to the balcony and to have a stone balustrade rather than modern SS and glass balustrading. These would be in a prominent position on the front elevation of the building. The value of the row of properties is in part due to the matching details. The previous approval alters this in relation to the glass balcony. The proposed stone balcony arguably blends in more, and so is a potentially reduced impact. The introduction of pillars is an additional and potentially negative impact. Overall it may be that the net impact of the proposal on the streetscene (and proposed Conservation Area) is reduced, however this would be a balanced judgement and certainly the impact on the area would be materially different. On balance it is therefore considered that given the nature/level of change, it should be assessed by way of full planning application.
