### Officer's Report

Site

The dwelling Ballakilley Cottage, Bride, is a two storey detached property which is located on the western side of the Main Road, and south of the St Bridgets Church.

Land Use Zoning / Policy

The application site is within an area recognised as being an area of predominately residential use, under the Isle of Man Development Plan Order 1982. The site is not within a Conservation Area, however is within an area zoned as high landscape value or costal value and scenic significance.

Planning History The following previous planning application is considered relevant in the assessment determination of this application:- Alterations and first floor extension over garage to provide additional living accommodation - 06/02020/B – APPROVED

Proposal

The application proposes the installation of two roof solar panels.

### Representations

We have received no privately written representations objecting to the application.

### Assessment / Recommendation

The proposals are relatively minor proposals which from the street scene will have a very limited visual impact, due to their size, position and location of the public highway. For these reasons the proposals would seem appropriate in these locations and therefore my recommendation is for an approval.

### Party Status

I consider that the following meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status:

- Bride Parish Commissioners
- Department of Transport Highways Division

**C 2.**
This approval relates to the submitted documents and drawings 232-13 and 232-14 all received on 25th September 2007.

I confirm that this decision accords with Government Circular Nos 44/05 (Delegation of Functions to Director of Planning and Building Control) and 47/05 (Delegation of Functions to Senior Planning Officer)
