# Supporting Planning Statement

## Lincluden Glen View Terrace Port Erin Isle of Man IM9 6HA

Statement to accompany the attached planning application and referencing proposed amendments and alterations following the decision dated 28th January 2011;

1. To the front of the property in addition to the existing terrace a second terrace will be formed to create two separate terraces for the exclusive use of each of the ground floor apartments as shown (edged green) on the attached drawing number 11/14/02. These are to the front of the property, south facing and overlooking Athol Glen thus giving privacy and amenity space for the occupants of the ground floor apartments.

2. The area to the left of the property (minimum width 4.4 metres) will be used to create two additional parking spaces and together with the three spaces to the front of the property creating a minimum of five parking spaces. In addition to which there is a public car park at the end of Glen View Terrace as indicated edged blue on the attached drawing 11/14/01.

3. The restriction of the ground floor to a single apartment would create an internal circulation problem in that any occupants of the first and second floor apartments would have no direct access to the rear of the building and would therefore need to pass through the front of the building via the proposed car parking areas to gain access to the rear courtyard and bin store.

4. The actual boundary of the Property to the front is boundary wall of Athol Glen and to the rear, the boundary wall of the Glen Falcon apartments. The adopted highway terminates at the boundary between number 8 Glen View Terrace and the subject property as indicated on the attached drawing. The occupier of Olive Mount (10 Glen View Terrace) has a shared right of way over the pathway to the rear and the driveway to the front.

5. The demolition of the existing single storey structure and outbuilding, replacing with a single storey extension with a mono-pitch roof with Velux window will enhance the current aspect as per the photographs attached to these drawings.

6. The rear elevation windows would be replaced with uPVC frames incorporating double glazed sealed units, in a casement design whilst the front elevation would be replaced with uPVC frames (incorporating double glazed sealed units) in a sliding sash design to match the existing with the exception of the top floor where they are already casement windows and again these would be replaced with uPVC frames (incorporating double glazed sealed units) of a matching design.

We trust that these amendments will address the matters referred to in your decision dated 28th January 2011.
