The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan, the Residential Design Guide, and the Area Plan for the East.
General Policy 2
General Policy 2 permits development in accordance with Area Plan zoning provided it respects site surroundings in siting, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect character, amenities, highway safety, or other listed matters. The officer tested the rear single storey extension's scale, design, materials, location, and amenity impacts, finding full compliance due to its modest size, matching finish, blank sides, boundary separation, and lack of overlooking or overshadowing.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
