# Decision Notice

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 Daniel Reid, Ref 25/90803/C, for the Change of use of full ground floor area to Class 1.3 (food and drink) and Class 1.4 (hot food takeaway) at 8 Peel Street Ramsey Isle Of Man IM8 1JH.

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 hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice.

Reason: To comply with Article 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.

This approval relates to the following drawings:

- o Location Plan, March 2025
- o Site Plan, March 2025
- o Existing Floor Layout, PL03, March 2025
- o Proposed Floor Layout, PL04, August 2025

NOTE The Flood Risk Management Division of the Department of Infrastructure advises that mitigations against flooding are put in place, such as electrics above flood level, flood resilient materials and doors where possible.

This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) The application would regularise the existing use of the whole of the ground floor of the building as a restaurant/takeaway. The use is appropriate in this town centre location and the inclusion of the additional floorspace proposed would have no detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, the living conditions of nearby residential

- occupiers or existing flood risk. Consequently, the proposal would comply with relevant legislation and Development Plan Policy.

Date of Issue: 21st October 2025
