**Document:** Officer Planning Report **Application:** 08/01953/C — Variation of condition 4 of approved office building (PA 08/00924B) to allow additional use for professional services (use class 2) **Decision:** Permitted **Decision Date:** 2008-12-04 **Parish:** Braddan **Document Type:** report / officer_report **Source:** https://planningportal.im/a/86434-braddan-and-nos/documents/1533147 --- # Officer Planning Report ## Planning Report And Recommendations [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Considerations [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Written Representations ### Consultations [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Officer's Report The applicants are seeking to vary condition 4 of 08/00924 to allow for financial and profession services (Use Class 2) to use the proposed building. The building illustrated as being an office may only be used in accordance with Class 4 of the Isle of Man Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2005 Schedule 4 and the cafe element as shown in the approved plans may be used for the sale of hot and cold food for consumption on the premises and the sale of hot or cold food for consumption off the premises. The applicant’s have indicated that they would like Classes 2 (a) and (b) [Financial and Professional Services] to be allowed to be operated from the proposed building as they consider these uses to be acceptable within a town centre location. They do not envisage the building to be used for Classes 2 (c) to (e) [betting shop, booking office for a driving school and a job centre] and would be content to those uses to be excluded. The site is zoned as predominantly offices and such uses can be found within such area. I consider the proposed uses to be compatible with the land use zoning within the Douglas Local Plan. I therefore recommend that planning permission be granted subject to conditions. ### Recommendation **Recommended Decision:** Permitted **Date of Recommendation:** 01.12.2008 ### Conditions and Notes for Approval / Reasons and Notes for Refusal C : Conditions for approval N : Notes attached to conditions R : Reasons for refusal - : Notes attached to refusals #### C 1.
