#### For the attention of the Secretary to the Planning Committee.

Dear Ms Callow,

Maughold Parish Commissioners held a meeting to consider planning issues on Monday 3rd August 2009, and the clerk was instructed to submit comment on the 5 named applications below:

09/01052/B Elgin Stables, Jacks Lane, Alterations & extension to dwelling house; Mr John Foster. The Commission has no concerns to raise and recommends approval. 09/01067/A Field 624255 & 624256 Glen Mona Loop Road, Approval in Principle to erect a detached dwelling; Mr R.S. Baker.

Members of the Commission note the various policies of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan which make reference to new development in the countryside. They note that no area plan is in place to assist in identifying locations that would satisfy the requirements of the definition of 'in-fill' and 'ribbon' development.

However, due to the proximity of other dwellings in a close 'series', Members have no strong objections to the proposals in the application which they feel could be termed as 'in-fill' development along the seaward side of the Loop Road.

In the absence of an Area Plan, they are content to leave the judgement of the appropriateness of these proposals to the discretion of the planning Committee. They would object very strongly to any 'tandem', 'backland' or other sporadic development in this locality.

09/01124/B Shearwater, Port Lewaigue, Rendering works; Mr & Mrs R Collister.

The Commission has no concerns to raise and recommends approval.

09/01178/B Ballellin Farm, Extension to existing barn; Mr R W Quayle. The Commission has no concerns to raise and recommends approval 09/01186/B Windmill Farm Cottage, Alterations and extension to dwelling and erection of detached garage; Mr & Mrs Keith Battery.

Members noted the proposals and the subsequent amended drawings for this property in the Maughold Conservation Area. They are a little concerned that the detached garage is remote from the property, but note that the style, scope, and particularly the height, of the garage are modest. In the light of the latter circumstances they have no strong objection to the proposals, but seek assurance that the Conservation Officer is consulted and that his comments are used to further inform the Planning Committee prior to a decision being made.

The Commission thanks the Planning Committee for the opportunity to comment on the above applications.

Yours sincerely

Martin Royle
Clerk On behalf of Maughold Parish Commissioners.
