Reason: The dwelling is within a single residential plot within an area not zoned for development where an exception has been made. The application does not propose to create separate units of accommodation within the site and has not been considered as such. 7. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) (Temporary Use or Development) Order 2015 Schedule 1 Class B or any order amending or replacing this order, no additional uses may take place at the site other than in accordance with an approval set out within a specific planning application.

This approval relates to the submitted documents and drawings reference numbers all received; 15.02.2022 Location Plan Planning Information Covering Letter 18.05.2022 Email from applicants 27.05.2022 Email from applicants 01.07.2022 030 REV A This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) Overall, as indicated previously, the proposal would not comply with general planning policies. However, the proposal would have little visual impact upon the character and quality of the landscape, provides adequate on-site parking, would not adversely affect the amenities of local residents and the proposal would be beneficial to the local economy and provide a high quality and unique facility to members of the public and visitors to the Island. The growing of produce on the site for specific use for the florist business again on the site are further reasons why this type of development is more suited within the countryside setting rather than a town centre/industrial site. Date of Issue: 19th July 2022
