General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in scale/form/design, not adversely affect character of locality, and provide safe access. Assessed compliant for amenities, traffic, highway safety (sub-clauses c, g, h, i, j, m) but failed 2c due to scale detracting from Registered Building's character.
Environment Policy 32
Prohibits extensions/alterations to Registered Buildings that detrimentally affect their special character. Proposal failed as larger garage would detract from character without preserving or enhancing it.
no objections including the amended plans as submitted
No Objection subject to no surface water discharge to foul sewer (noted as satisfied by soakaway proposal)
Water Authority has no objection subject to surface water drainage conditions; Andreas Parish Commissioners have no objection to both applications; Geoffrey Clark objects on grounds of field not being residential curtilage, non-compliance with environmental policy, and location in High Landscape Value area.
Key concern: Field 121592 not part of residential curtilage requiring change of use, non-compliance with environmental policy, and location in High Landscape Value area
Isle of Man Water and Sewerage Authority
Conditional No ObjectionNo Objection: - subject to the following conditions; It is noted that the surface water from the property is to be discharged via a soakaway
Conditions requested: There must be NO discharge of surface water (including that from roofs and paved areas) from this proposed development to any foul drainage system(s) so as to comply with the requirements of the Isle of Man Water & Sewerage Authority, Drainage Division and the Sewerage Act 1999; The use of soakaways are subject to Building Control approval and if this approval is not granted, the Authority would not give permission for the discharge of surface water into the existing foul system and an alternative means of disposal would have to be sought
Geoffrey Clark
ObjectionI have serious doubt that Field 121592 is part of the residential curtilage and therefore a change of use is involved; It may be that the applicant owns the field but that does not automatically confer residential status to a filed which has its own identification number; It is identified on the 1982 Development Plan as "Woodland"
