Tel 01624 685950 Reason: For avoidance of doubt and to protect a tributary of the River Laxey in accordance with Environment Policy 7 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. This decision relates to the following detail, plans and drawings received on the 10th of June 2024; o Site & Location Plans, Drawing no.23 1789/01/A This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) 1) In applying great weight to the preservation and enhancement of the Laxey Conservation Area, having regard to Section 18(4) of the Town and Country Act (1999) to preserve and enhance assets, in conjunction with the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016 Policies Environment Policy 35 and 39 and, Planning Policy Statement 1/01 it is considered that loss of the lean-to greenhouse and flat roofed outbuilding would not cause undue harm to the Laxey Conservation Area or the character of the dwellinghouse. 2) In applying great weight to the preservation and enhancement of the Laxey Conservation Area, having regard to Section 18(4) of the Town and Country Act (1999) to preserve and enhance assets, in conjunction with the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016 Policies Environment Policy 35 and 39 and, Planning Policy Statement 1/01 it is considered that loss of the porch would cause harm to the building within the Laxey Conservation Area and less than significant harm to the Laxey Conservation Area provided that either the wall is made good to match the existing elevation or any replacement reflects the character of the porch on the adjacent dwellinghouse or is a clear modern addition. 3) In weighing up the planning balance it is considered that demolition of sections of the South-West elevation would cause harm due to the loss of the windows. However, taking into consideration the proposed modern extension, that harm would be outweighed by the modern better insulated addition subject to separate permission under 24/00419/B.
