Permission was granted for a two storey extension to the rear of a mid-terrace house at 36 St Germans Place, Peel. The property sits on the south western side of the road and is one of three dwellings at the end of the terrace that are stepped back from the main building line. The central planning consideration was whether the proposed extension would cause harm to neighbouring properties or the wider area. The officer concluded it would not, and the application was permitted with five conditions attached. The decision was made under delegated authority by the Senior Planning Officer.

The application was approved by a delegated Senior Planning Officer. The key planning question was whether the extension would have an adverse impact on neighbouring properties or the surrounding area, and it was found to be acceptable on that basis.
