Designation of conservation areas
Requires special attention to preserving or enhancing the character or appearance of conservation areas. The officer assessed the demolition against this test, finding the utility room and flat roof extension make no positive contribution due to their form, materials, and age, so removal causes no harm and passes the test.
Strategic Policy 4
Part of IOM Strategic Plan 2016; protects conservation area character. The modest scale and non-contributory nature of the extensions mean demolition preserves the character, satisfying the policy.
Environment Policy 35
Part of IOM Strategic Plan 2016; preserves conservation areas. Assessed alongside SP4; demolition protects and preserves character as extensions add nothing positive.
