The officer noted the new flue would be longer and higher than the existing but further from residential properties and not particularly conspicuous from public views.

Port St Mary Commissioners
No ObjectionNo objections will be submitted by the Commissioners in respect of this application.; No objections will be submitted by the Commissioners in respect of this amended application for a revised flue/vent at the rear of the property.
Dr S. A. Schillingan
Conditional No ObjectionIn principle I have no objection to the KED, except I am concerned it is discharging below the road line and will below the gutter line of my property.; May I propose that the KED is extended up the sloping roof to the ridge of the Albert's roof.; Also the noise emitted from the fan casing should be less than 45 dBA at 1m to prevent an increase in noise level to the adjacent properties.
Conditions requested: KED is extended up the sloping roof to the ridge of the Albert's roof; noise emitted from the fan casing should be less than 45 dBA at 1m
Sydney House
No ObjectionWe have no objection to the revised ventilation exhaust scheme.; We understand from the fireman and Mr. O'Meara that the exhaust air will be deodourised as proposed by M.S. Renton to comply with current regulations.; We also understand that the fan noise will be attenuated to comply with the current noise regulation requirements.
