Erection of a dwelling and creation of a vehicular access
25 August 2015 · Delegated
Plot Adjacent To, Maughold Lodge, Claughbane Walk, Ramsey, Isle Of Man, IM8 2jp
This application sought to vary a condition of an earlier planning permission (PA 10/01832/B) for the erection of a dwelling and creation of a vehicular access on a plot of undeveloped land adjacent to Maughold Lodge, Claughbane Walk, Ramsey. The variation was specifically to extend the period of that permission, allowing the applicant, Mr David Maddrell, more time to carry out the approved development. The site is an undeveloped parcel of land to the north of Maughold Lodge and east of The Crescent, with residential properties at Queens Valley to the east and a vacant plot to the north and west. The application was approved on 25 August 2015 under delegated authority, with three conditions attached. The officer had also recommended approval.
The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture approved the application on 25 August 2015. The decision extended the time limit on an earlier permission for a dwelling and vehicular access on the plot, allowing the development to proceed beyond the original deadline.
