number of properties in the vicinity and as a result it will not not adversely affect the amenity of local residents or the character of the locality. The proposed dwelling sits comfortably within the application site of just over 1 acre and therefore accords with the second criteria of Planning Circular 8/89. The driveway and courtyard provides satisfactory amenity standards in itself, including adequate parking, servicing, manoeuvring space; and safe and convenient access for all highway users in accordance with the Strategic Plan. The dwelling incorporates where possible existing topography and landscape features, to provide a large garden, without removing the mature trees contained within the site. At the same time due to the topography of the site, the existing trees and proposed boundary wall would limit any public views of the proposed dwelling. The garage block would border the eastern boundary of the site and project 1.9m over the boundary wall which is a concern. But after a site visit to the area it was viewed that there is a number of outbuildings and properties a long the Ballanard Road which would be similar to the proposed garage block and with the existing boundary treatment a long the application site it is regarded that this is sufficient to protect the visual amenities of local residents. ### Recommendation For these reasons the proposed dwelling would seem appropriate in this location and comply with the relevant planning policies and therefore my recommendation is for an approval. ### Party Status It is considered that the following meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status: Douglas Corporation The Department of Transport Highways Division ### Recommendation Recommended Decision: Permitted Date of Recommendation: 29.01.2009

No development or other operation shall be commenced on this site until adequate steps, which shall have been previously approved in writing by the Planning Authority, have been taken to safeguard against damage or injury during construction works of all trees on the site, or those trees whose root structure may extend within the site. In particular no excavations, site works, trenches or channels shall be cut or pipes or services laid or any other works carried out in such a way as to cause damage or injury to the trees by interference with their root structure and no soil or waste shall be deposited on the land in such a position as to be likely to cause damage or injury to the trees.
