The officer noted that a significant number of properties in the surrounding area already have uPVC windows installed, concluding it would be unreasonable to oppose the proposal on that basis.
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 appropriate in terms of scale, massing, design, appearance and impact on adjacent property. The officer assessed the uPVC replacements against this, finding them acceptable given their commonality in the area and lack of amenity harm. No tensions were noted.
