# Officer Planning Report Recommendations

## Planning Report And Recommendations [Table omitted in markdown export] [Table omitted in markdown export] [Table omitted in markdown export] [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Considerations ### Written Representations ### Consultations

### Officer's Report

#### The Application Site

The property Mona House, 1 Mona Street, Ramsey is located on a corner plot, Mona Street to the east of the property and Dale street to the south.

#### Planning Policy

The application site is within an area recognised as mixed use (town centre), under the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Ramsey Local Plan) (No. 2) Order 1998, hereafter referred to as the Ramsey Local Plan. The site is also within the Ramsey Conservation Area.

#### Proposal

The application proposes the installation of replacement roof lights.

## Representations

Ramsey Town Commissioners:-
*No objection*

The Ramsey Heritage Trust makes no objection to the proposal, but considers the proposal to be much more appropriate in design, which will give a more harmonious appearance to the building and street scene.

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

## Assessment / Recommendation

As the property is within a Conservation Area I have discussed the application with the Conservation Officer, who has no objection, subject to a condition for conservation style roof lights to be installed. I consider the proposal to be an improvement to the property due to a more traditional design, compared to the existing, and therefore I believe the proposal would have a positive impact upon the street scene.

For this reasons the proposal would seem appropriate in this location 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:

The Ramsey Commissioners Highways Division

I consider that the following parties that made representations to the planning application do not meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should not be afforded interested party status:

Ramsey Heritage Trust
