Policy O/RES/P/7 (Manor Park plots)
Requires residential development on remaining plots in Manor Park to respond to the style and density on each side of the road and not adversely affect amenities (outlook, light, privacy) of abutting properties. The officer assessed the two-storey rear extension against this, finding its design complements existing house types and does not harm neighbouring amenities.
Policy O/RES/P/21 of the Onchan Local Plan (Planning Circular 1/2000)
States extensions to existing residential property will generally not be opposed where appropriate in terms of scale, massing, design, appearance and impact on adjacent property. The proposal was found appropriate in these respects, with no adverse impacts noted.
General Policy 2
