Ayre View, Ballakinnag Road, Smeale, Ramsey, Isle Of Man, IM7 3ed
This application sought minor changes to an existing planning approval (reference 19/00386/B) at Ayre Cottage, Ballakinnag Road, Andreas. The proposed change involved altering the position and orientation of an ancillary shed already approved as part of that earlier permission. The application was assessed against the rules governing minor changes applications, which require that the changes are genuinely minor, do not alter the approved site boundary, do not increase the number of dwellings, and do not fundamentally change the basis on which the original approval was granted. The Director of Planning and Building Control approved the application by delegated decision on 30 July 2020, with one condition attached.
