25 July 2016 · Delegated
2 The Willows, Ballacraine, St. Johns, Isle Of Man, IM4 3ls
Permission was granted to replace the existing polycarbonate glazed roof of a rear conservatory with a tiled roof at 2 The Willows, Ballacraine, St Johns, Isle of Man. The conservatory is located on the south-facing rear elevation of the property. The officer's report noted that it is not visible from the A1 highway to the north, meaning the works would have no impact on the public street scene. The main planning considerations were the effect on the character and appearance of the dwelling and the wider area. The proposal was found acceptable on both counts and was approved under delegated authority.
The application was approved on 25 July 2016. The key planning considerations were the impact on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and the effect on the surrounding area and street scene. The conservatory sits on the rear south elevation and is not visible from the main road, which supported the case for approval. The formal decision record lists 1 condition.
