General Policy 2
General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007 requires proposals to preserve or enhance the character of conservation areas. The officer assessed that the proposed window replacements failed this test because the flat-head design with curved infill panels did not match the original curved head openings, harming the townscape character.
Environment Policy 35
Environment Policy 35 relates to protecting conservation area character. The proposal was found non-compliant as the window detailing did not protect the townscape or preserve/enhance the conservation area.
