Tel 01624 685950 Overall, it is considered that although the shortfall in parking provision weighs against the proposal (as it would fail to fully comply with the requirements of Transport Policy 7), it is concluded that the proposals would be acceptable from a design standpoint, and would ensure that the character of the site and immediate locality is not adversely impacted. Whilst there is shortfall of onsite parking provision, the site is within close proximity to the town centre, close to services and shops, and close to public transport links, such that the lack of off street parking provision in this case is acceptable. The development, therefore, accords with Strategic Policy 5, Strategic Policy 1 and 11, General Policy 2, and Housing Policies 1 and 4 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan (2016), as well as the Area Plan for the East.
