This application sought consent to erect two advertising signs at Pavilion Apartments on Fairway Drive, Ramsey, Isle of Man. The apartment blocks are situated to the north of Fairway Drive and to the west of Claughbane Drive.

The officer had also recommended approval, and the committee's decision was consistent with that recommendation.
