The application site comprises the curtilage of a terraced dwelling that is located in Cronkbourne Village in Tromode, Braddan. The building is Registered as part of a wider building Registration.
The proposed development comprises the erection of a satellite dish onto the dwelling.
Whilst the application site has been the subject of any previous planning applications it is considered that none of these are specifically material to the assessment of this current planning application.
There is a concurrent Registered Building consent application (09/00287/CON) for the proposed work. REPRESENTATIONS Braddan Parish Commissioners have no objections to the planning application. PLANNING POLICY
In terms of local plan policy, the application site is within an area recognised as being within predominantly residential use under the Braddan Parish District Local Plan. There are no policies with Planning Circular 6/91, the written statement that accompanies the local plan, which are considered specifically material to the assessment of the planning application.
In terms of strategic plan policy, the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007 contains two policies that are considered specifically material to the assessment of this current planning application.
General Policy 2 states:
"Development which is in accordance with the land-use zoning and proposals in the appropriate Area Plan and with other policies of this Strategic Plan will normally be permitted, provided that the development:
Paragraph 8.12.1 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007 states "As a general policy, in built up areas not controlled by Conservation Area or Registered Building policies, there will be a general presumption in favour of extensions to existing property where such extensions would not have an adverse impact on either adjacent property or the surrounding area in general.".
Environment Policy 32 states: "Extensions or alterations to a Registered Building which would affect detrimentally its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest will not be permitted."
The proposed development comprises the erection of a satellite dish onto the dwelling. The proposal was the subject of pre-application discussion and has been the subject of subsequent discussion with Building Conservation Officer.
Given the proximity of mature trees to the rear of the dwelling the preferred option of locating the satellite dish on the rear of the more recent extension is not possible. However, after discussions it is considered that the proposed siting offers the best compromise between providing adequate satellite reception whilst respecting the status of the Registered Building. This is considered to accord with the provisions of Environment Policy 32 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007.
It is recommended that the planning application be approved.
It is considered that the following parties that made representations to the planning application meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status:
Braddan Parish Commissioners.
