Paragraph 8.12.1 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan
The policy states a general presumption in favour of extensions to existing property in built-up areas not controlled by Conservation or Registered Building policies, where such extensions would not have an adverse impact on adjacent property or the surrounding area. The officer tested the single-storey extension's visual impact and neighbour amenity via site visit, finding existing screening sufficient to mitigate effects. No tension arose as the proposal complied fully.
