TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019
In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to APPROVE an application by Living Hope Community Church Limited, Ref 24/91281/B, for the Alterations and extensions to roof, installation of cladding panels to the north elevation; rendering to south elevation and new external staircase on the rear elevation; relocation of cycle storage (in association with 24/01285/CON) at Removal House 39 Finch Road Douglas Isle Of Man IM1 2PT.
Any conditions or notes which apply to the approval are set out below. This approval is subject to compliance with any conditions listed and may not be implemented until it becomes final (see guidance notes).
Reason: To comply with Article 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
This approval relates to the following:
o Existing Roof Plan 1:100 EX-05 o Proposed Ground/First Floor Plan 1:100 P-01 Rev G
This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) The existing building already features large area of flat roof, while the proposal will result in the loss of some pitched roof elements, the primary frontage is to be best maintained and the existing building is not of any traditional merit at the rear, nor a positive contributor to the character of the WRCA, nor its is mentioned in the character appraisal. The works to the roofs
are considered acceptable in this specific case, and the building will remain a building which does not contribute to the historic character of the area and is set apart from its surrounding traditional buildings just as is the situation now. View of the building within the immediate streetscene may change but the overall character and appearance of the wider conservation area is to remain preserved in line with The Act 1999, Environment Policy 35 and to have an acceptable visual and amenity impact inline with General Policy 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
