The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 (GP2) of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016, focusing on character/appearance and neighbour amenity.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design (b), does not adversely affect surrounding character (c), and does not harm resident amenity or locality character (g). The officer tested the rear extension against these criteria, finding it compliant due to non-projection beyond existing structure, matching materials/design, fitting streetscene with precedent at No. 7, and minimal amenity impact per shadow analysis.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with Article 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
