The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan, noting the site is in a 'Predominantly Residential' zone per Peel Local Plan 1989.
General Policy 2
Requires development in zoned areas to respect site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; not adversely affect townscape character; provide satisfactory amenity including access/parking; and avoid unacceptable road safety/traffic effects. Officer assessed garage/driveway against townscape character and amenity (garden loss unfortunate but contextual with area's driveway strips), porch against scale/form/design (small size acceptable despite neighbour mismatch), and overall against highway standards (no objections received). Proposal complied with all relevant tests.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
no objection to the proposal
