The officer noted that requiring dedicated parking at Balcony House inhibited its sale, restoration, and future use as a self-contained Registered Building, which is prominent in the Conservation Area…
Castletown Local Plan 1991
The policy allows discretion on parking standards where an otherwise acceptable proposal would be prejudiced, e.g. development near Registered Building or in Conservation Area. Officer applied this to justify deletion due to impact on Balcony House.
Castletown Local Plan 1991
In redevelopment and town locations, parking requirements determined on specific cases based on bed spaces and population generated. Officer noted more flexible approach now applied, referencing recent town centre approvals without dedicated parking.
Deletion of prior condition
This permission relates to the deletion of condition 2 of PA 03/0803 thus no longer requiring the provision of 3.5 parking spaces to the rear of Balcony House.
