The officer noted that recent road improvements removed the narrow 2m-wide parking bay fronting the properties, making forward entry and exit essential on the busy and fast New Castletown Road.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site surroundings, provides safe access and manoeuvring, does not adversely affect amenity or character, and has no unacceptable road safety impact. The officer tested highway safety (h, i), locality character (c, g), and amenity standards, finding the turning areas necessary post-road improvements and acceptable due to boundary protections and planting. No tensions noted; fully compliant.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
