Policy O/RES/P/21 of the Onchan Local Plan (Planning Circular 1/2000)
The policy states that 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. The officer assessed the side extension, rear dormer, and driveway changes against these criteria and found the impact on amenity limited due to the rear positioning of the dormer. No tensions were noted as the proposal met all tests.
