The boundary treatment around the site consists of a 1.8 metre high timber fence. #### Land Use Zoning 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; or within an area zoned as High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance. 8 July 2008 08/01056/B Page 1 of 3 ## Proposal The application proposes the erection of detached garage and extension to driveway. The garage would have a width of 6 metres, a depth of 6 metres and a ridge height of 4 metres. ### Representations Andreas Parish Commissioners:- No objection Highways Division:- Do not oppose The Drainage Division makes no comment on the merit of the proposed development but request that an informative note be attached to any approval decision notice. The Authority has received no privately written representations objecting to the application. ### Assessment / recommendation The proposal would have little or no impact upon the visual amenity of the surrounding locality, nor would the proposal have a detrimental impact upon the character of the property of have a significant adverse impact to the detriment of residential amenity of the neighbouring residential properties, due to the size and location in relation with the neighbouring properties. For these reasons the proposals would seem appropriate in these locations and therefore my recommendation is for an approval. I consider that the following meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status:- Andreas Parish Commissioners Highways Division Drainage Division ### Recommendation Recommended Decision: Permitted Date of Recommendation: 08.07.2008 ### Conditions and Notes for Approval / Reasons and Notes for Refusal C : Conditions for approval N : Notes attached to conditions R : Reasons for refusal - : Notes attached to refusals C 1. 8 July 2008 08/01056/B The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice. C 2. This approval relates to the garage and driveway alterations as proposed in the submitted documents and drawings 01056/1, 01056/2 and 01056/3 all received on 27th May 2008. C 3. The external finishes of the extension must match those of the existing building in all respects. N 1. There must be NO discharge of surface water (including that from roofs and paved areas) from this proposed development to any foul drainage system(s) so as to comply with the requirements of the Department of Transport Drainage Division and the Sewerage Act 1999. It is noted that the surface water from the property is to be discharged via a soakaway. The use of soakaways are subject to Building Control approval and if this approval is not granted, the Drainage Division would not give permission for the discharge of surface water into the existing foul system and an alternative means of disposal would have to be sought. I confirm that this decision accords with Government Circular No 31/07 (Delegation of Functions to Senior Planning Officer) Decision Made : Permitted Date : Signed : Mrs F Mullen Senior Planning Officer --- *Data sourced from the Isle of Man public planning register under the [Isle of Man Open Government Licence](https://www.gov.im/about-this-site/open-government-licence/).* *Canonical page: https://planningportal.im/a/85460-andreas-croit-ny-kenzie-extension-garage/documents/1235331*
