### Officer's Report

## THE APPLICATION SITE AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

The application site comprises the curtilage of a semi-detached dwelling located on King Edward Road in Onchan. The dwelling is a Registered Building.

The proposed development comprises of the installation of replacement windows and door in the rear, seaward, elevation of the dwelling.

## PLANNING HISTORY

Whilst the application site has been the subject of previous planning application it is considered that this is not specifically material to the assessment of this current planning application.

As the dwelling is a Registered Building there is a concurrent Registered Building Consent application (07/00518/CON). REPRESENTATIONS Onchan District Commissioners recommend that the planning application be approved. The Department of Transport Highways Division do not oppose the planning application. PLANNING POLICY

The application site is within an area recognised as being within predominantly residential use under the Onchan Local Plan. Policy O/RES/P/21 of the written statement (Planning Circular 1/2000) that accompanies the Onchan Local Plan states:

"Extensions and alterations to existing residential property will generally not be opposed where such proposals are appropriate in terms of scale, massing, design, appearance and impact on adjacent property."

## Assessment

[Table omitted in markdown export]

In terms of impact on public and private amenity the proposed development is modest and without undue harm. As such the planning application is acceptable. This issue of the design and appearance of the replacement windows and door is something to be considered and dealt with by the Registered Building Consent application.

It is recommended that the planning application be approved.

## Party Status

It is considered that the following parties that made representations to the planning application meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should be afforded interested party status:

Onchan District Commissioners; and The Department of Transport Highways Division.
