Site Adjacent To Southern Roundabout, Ronaldsway Industrial Estate, Ronaldsway, Ballasalla, Isle Of Man, IM9 2se
This application sought approval for amendments to a previously permitted hotel development at the southern roundabout of Ronaldsway Industrial Estate, near Ronaldsway airport in Malew. The revised scheme proposed constructing the hotel in two phases, with associated facilities including a restaurant, conference suite, breakfast room, kitchens, stores, an MEA substation, and landscaping. The Planning Committee approved the application on 4 October 2005, in line with the officer's recommendation. The site sits on the western side of the roundabout to the south west of the airport, and the tallest part of the proposed building was noted to be around 1.8 metres lower than the height of the existing offices nearby. Fifteen conditions were attached to the approval.
