Residential Development of 69 Dwellings with Associated Roads, Sewers, and Public Open Space, Land Between Clybane Close and Isle of Man Business Park Service Centre, off Vicarage Road, Braddan.
Statement of Supporting Information
- The site is within an area shown by the extant Braddan Local Plan to require the preparation of a development "Masterplan", with land uses to include industry, science based industry, high density residential use, landscaping and a secondary school. A plan has previously been prepared and approved under PA 89/4166 which shows the site to be part of the Isle of Man Business Park and therefore subject to industrial and commercial based land uses.
- This application is in effect proposing an update of the plan approved under PA 89/4166 by seeking to develop the site for residential purposes, which is in accordance with the uses required to be in the Masterplan Area by the Braddan Local Plan. Such "updates" have in the past been found to be acceptable, for example the area previously proposed for a secondary school is now being developed for industrial use as a school is no longer required for the area. The area is proposed for Predominantly Residential use by the Modified Draft of the Braddan Parish Plan, which was considered at Public Inquiry in June 2003.
- It is proposed to provide a mix of property types on the site, including dwellings suitable for public sector and first time buyer use. Each dwelling will have a minimum of two off street parking spaces, and Public Open Space is to be provided adjacent to the existing children's play area at Clybane Close. Significant tree planting is to take place as part of a landscaping scheme, as well as a new Beech hedge around the northern part of the site, and a bus lay-by and shelter is to be provided at the roadside. Highway and drainage matters have been the subject of consultation with the Department of Transport.
