## Town And Country Planning Act 1999

### The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to APPROVE an application by Mr Julian Wood, Ref 25/90102/B, for the Changes to wall and roof materials, change to site layout, addition of dormer, removal of one vehicular access (amendment to 23/00739/B) (retrospective) at Land Of Former Ballatiki Shore Road Ballaugh Isle Of Man IM7 5AZ.

Any conditions or notes which apply to the approval are set out below. This approval is subject to compliance with any conditions listed and may not be implemented until it becomes final (see guidance notes).

1. The development shall be completed in accordance with the materials as indicated on approved drwg no. 04B and confirmed within the submitted Covering Letter.

Reason: In the interests of the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area
2. The visibility splay(s) identified on drwg. no. 03B shall be constructed in accordance with the approved plans and thereafter kept permanently clear of any obstruction exceeding 1050 mm in height above adjoining carriageway level.

Reason: In the interests of highway safety.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2025 (or any Order revoking and/or re-enacting that Order with or without modification) no extension, enlargement or other alteration of the dwelling, and no garages or other free standing buildings shall be erected within the curtilage of the dwelling hereby approved, other than that expressly authorised by this approval, shall be carried out, without the prior written approval of the Department.

Reason: To control development in the interests of the amenities of the surrounding area.
This approval relates to the following drawings and documents received 29 January 2025:
01 Location Plan

02 Existing Site Plan
03B Proposed Site Plan and Sight Lines
04B Proposed Plans, Elevations and Sections
05A Existing and Proposed Floor Plans Overlaid
06A Building Setting Out Drawing
07 As Built Gable Detail and Pedestrian Access Images
08 Stilz Duo Classic Lift Specification
This decision has been made for the following reasons(s)
The amendments to the approved scheme are considered to be acceptable and will not adversely impact upon visual amenity or highway safety. The window to window relationship between the proposed dormer window and craft room at Sunsets is such that there would be no direct sightlines or loss of privacy arising from its construction. The development will not, therefore, give rise to any significant and unacceptable level of overlooking and loss of privacy to the occupiers of Sunsets. The development therefore accords with General Policy 2 and Housing Policy 14 of the IMSP and advice within the Residential Design Guide.
