The site is not within a Conservation Area. - 2.2 Due to the zoning of the site and the proposed works the following policies are relevant in the determination of the application:- - 2.3 Environment Policy 1 & 2 and Housing Policy 16 3.0 PLANNING HISTORY - 3.1 The following previous planning applications associated with the property which is considered relevant in the assessment and determination of this application; - 3.2 Alterations, demolition of existing garage and utility and erection of a two storey extension and conservatory extension - 07/00269/B- APPROVED 4.0 PROPOSAL - 4.1 The application seeks approval for the replacement of existing glazed conservatory roof with light weight roof tiles. 5.0 REPRESENTATIONS - 5.1 Andreas Parish Commissions (18.07.2018) have no objection. - 5.2 Highway Services indicate that there is no highway interest in the application (24.07.18). 6.0 ASSESSMENT - 6.1 The principal issues relate to the potential impact upon neighbouring amenities (overlooking, loss of light and/or overbearing impact) by the development and the potential visual impacts upon the amenities of the street scene. - 6.2 Regarding to the re-roofing of the conservatory roof it is considered to be an appropriate form of development which would have no significant impacts upon the amenities of the occupants of the neighbouring properties. - 6.3 In relation to the potential visual impact upon the street scene, the proposal would not be especially apparent from the adjacent highway, given its location to the rear of the dwelling; however, the proposal would be arguably more in keeping than the existing dwelling. - 6.4 Overall, it is considered that the overall level of development contained within the proposal is relatively modest and in keeping with the character of the dwelling, with suitably limited impact on the neighbouring properties. As such the proposal does not adversely affect public or private amenity and is therefore in accordance with Environment Policy 1 & 2 and Housing Policy 16 of the IOM Strategic Plan. 7.0 CONCLUSION - 7.1 For these reasons the proposal is considered to comply with the relevant polices of the Strategic Plan and the Douglas Local Plan and therefore recommended for an approval. 8.0 INTERESTED PERSON STATUS - 8.1 By virtue of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No 2) Order 2013 (Article 6(4), the following persons are automatically interested persons: - (a) The applicant, or if there is one, the applicant's agent; - (b) The owner and the occupier of any land that is the subject of the application or any other person in whose interest the land becomes vested; - (c) Any Government Department that has made written submissions relating to planning considerations with respect to the application that the Department considers material - (d) Highway Services Division of Department of Infrastructure and - (e) The local authority in whose district the land the subject of the application is situated. 8.2 The decision maker must determine: - o whether any other comments from Government Departments (other than the Department of Infrastructure Highway Services Division) are material; and - o whether there are other persons to those listed in Article 6(4) who should be given Interested Person Status.
