## Officer's Report

Site

The Britannia Hotel, Waterloo Road, Ramsey is a large detached property located on a corner plot with Peel Street to the north, Chapel lane to the east and Albert Street to the South.

Land Use Zoning

The dwelling has been zoned under the Ramsey Local Plan Order 1998 as being within an area of town centre use; the site is also within Ramsey Conservation Area.

Proposal

The application proposes to reduce the existing chimney and cap with a power assisted extraction fan.

Representations

Ramsey Commissioners:-
No objection

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

Assessment / recommendation

The removal of the existing chimney stack and cap will certainly lessen the visual impact upon the street scene and will therefore have a positive affect upon the Conservation Area and would therefore be appropriate in this location. 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:

The Ramsey Commissioners Highways Division
