Approval in principle for the erection of a workshop, storage and office unit

Refusal Reasons

• ✗The planning application fails to provide sufficient details of the vehicle parking and access arrangement for the proposed development; and provide sufficient details of the access arrangements, including sightlines and visibility splays, for the proposed development.
• ✗Notwithstanding the first reason for refusal the proposed development is contrary to the zoning of the Isle of Man (Onchan Local Plan) Order 2000. Under this local plan the application site is entirely within an area zoned for residential/office/retail mixed use development. The proposed use does not accord with that zoning.
• ✗Notwithstanding the first reason for refusal it is also considered that by virtue of its potential visual impact, noise nuisance, traffic generation and general disturbance the proposed development and its subsequent use would have an unacceptably adverse impact on the amenity of the surrounding area and in particular the residential amenity of the surrounding residential dwellings.
