Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture, Planning & Building Control Directorate, Murray House, Mount Havelock, Douglas, Isle of Man, IM1 2SF. Email [email protected]. Tel 01624 685950 The proposals are considered to pass the statutory test within section 16 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1999 as the building's architectural and historic special interest is being preserved. Whilst some alterations are proposed to the building's plan form, any harm from these alterations is judged to be offset from the removal of the secondary glazing, the restoration of the internal panelling around the windows, the replacement of modern roof lights with low-profile conservation style roof lights and the overall renovation and long-term safeguarding of the building. The proposals are also judged to be in accordance with Strategic Policy 4 and Environment Policy 32 of the IOM Strategic Plan 2016, together with Policies RB/3 and RB/5 of Planning Policy Statement 1/01 as the building's special interest is being protected and preserved. The creation of an off-street parking area at the rear of the property is very similar in form to those in place at number 7 and number 9, and is therefore judged to respect the site and its surroundings. While the loss of the existing trees is regrettable, the proposed landscaping is judged to mitigate this loss and the overall impact on the site's ecology is considered to be acceptable. With all of the above factors in mind, the application is judged to be acceptable. Date of Issue: 12th September 2024 J CHANCE Director of Planning and Building Control
