The officer concluded the principle of a single dwelling was acceptable in this residentially zoned urban site despite Policy R/R/P3's presumption against developing 'breathing spaces', as the site is…
Ramsey Local Plan Policy R/R/P2: Specific Area Development Briefs (Ormly Hall)
Requires development in Ballure area (site location) to safeguard settings of Manx Electric Railway and St Mary's Church, regard amenity of trees/gardens. Officer noted site well-screened, no mature trees lost, proposal in-keeping with area.
Policy R/R/P3
Presumption against developing 'breathing spaces' with trees/mature landscaping/green space in residential areas. Officer applied but found site not significantly attractive (grassed/small bushes), single dwelling retains curtilages, urban not greenfield, thus principle acceptable.
Approval in principle time limit and reserved matters
This approval is in principle only and will remain valid for a period of two years within which time no development may take place until such time as details of the reserved matters (siting, design, external appearance, internal layout, means of access, landscaping) have been approved by the Planning Authority. Such reserved matters should form the subject of a single application.
Approved plans
This approval relates to the submitted documents and drawing 01 all received on 28th December 2006.
Turning facility
The curtilage of the dwelling must include facility to allow a vehicle to turn within the site so as to enter and exit in a forward gear.
Off-street parking
In the interests of road safety, two off street parking spaces must be provided to serve the needs of the development.
