The officer considered the main issue to be character and appearance under General Policy 2 (b,c) of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
General Policy 2
GP2 sets general standards for acceptable development in residential areas, particularly regarding character and appearance (b,c). The officer assessed the cladding change against this, finding it acceptable as it would not adversely impact neighbouring properties or the streetscene, despite differing from Tudor styles, and would add interest. Paragraph 8.12.1 supports alterations to existing dwellings without harm.
