### Officer's Report

#### The Application Site And Proposed Development

The application site comprises of the curtilage of Marown School, which is located on Glen Darragh Road in Marown.

The proposed development comprises of the alteration of the building to provide disabled access ramp and steps.

#### Planning History

There have been no previous planning applications that I consider to be relevant to the assessment of this current planning application.

## Representations

Marown Parish Commissioners have no objection to the proposed development.

The Disability Access Office make no comment on the specific merit of the proposed development but request that the needs of disabled access are considered.

## Planning Policy

The application site is within the area covered by the 1982 Development Plan Order. There are no planning policies that I consider to be specifically relevant to the assessment of this planning application.

## Assessment

I consider the impact of the proposed development to be relatively modest, to be without detrimental impact and to actually represent an improvement to the building. Accordingly, I recommend that the planning application be approved.

## Party Status

I consider that all parties who made representations to the planning application meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status.
