Permission was granted for alterations and extensions to a dwelling at The Paddocks, Stoney Mountain Road, Eairy, Douglas, to form additional living accommodation. The site is a traditional cottage with a rear annex, located on the northern side of Stoney Mountain Road to the south of Billy Goat Park football pitch. During the application process, the plans were amended so that the proposal was reduced to a single-storey conservatory, representing a considerable scaling down of the original scheme. A key issue identified in the officer's report was that the means of escape from the first floor passed via a new staircase into the dining room, which was considered unsafe in the event of fire. The application was nonetheless approved with two conditions, under delegated powers.
