Strategic Policy 1
Requires optimising previously developed/under-used land, efficient site use considering access/landscaping/amenity, utilising existing infrastructure. Officer assessed site as unused residential-zoned land in Sulby (last housing site), four dwellings make best/efficient use vs local brief's two.
Strategic Policy 2 - Priority for new development to identified towns and villages
New development primarily in towns/villages or extensions, countryside exceptional. Site in village fits; supports efficient use over local plan prescription.
General Policy 2
Permits zoned development respecting site/surroundings (siting/layout/scale/design/landscaping), no adverse amenity/character/highway/habitat impacts, adequate parking/services. Proposal complies via single-storey design matching locality, distances prevent overlooking/loss of light, highway conditions, no ecology issues.
Housing Policy 1
Provision for 6000 dwellings 2001-2016. Contributes to housing supply.
Housing Policy 6
Zoned residential per area plan brief, but briefs not needlessly prescriptive. Local brief (max 2 dwellings) overridden by Strategic Plan para 1.4.4 as later document, no justification given for 2; 4 fits without harm.
