Permission was granted for alterations and the erection of a rear extension to Derbyhaven House, a three-storey mid-terraced dwelling on the western side of the highway at Derbyhaven, Isle of Man. The officer's assessment focused on two main planning considerations: the effect of the extension on the residential amenity of neighbouring properties, and the visual impact on the locality and surrounding landscape. The site is bordered by Marine Court Apartments to the south and Traa-Dy-Liooar to the north. The application was approved on 6 August 2015 by the Director of Planning and Building Control under delegated authority, with one condition attached to the permission.
