Unit 4 B, Middle River Industrial Estate, Douglas, Isle Of Man, IM2 1al
This application sought permission to change the use of an existing light industrial unit at Unit D, Plot 4, Middle River Industrial Estate, Douglas, to a vehicle body repair unit. The site sits within an area zoned for light industrial use on the Douglas Local Plan. The officer noted the building appeared to have space for seven working bays, and the adjoining Plot 24 was also referenced in the application. The application was refused on 29 January 2007. The sole stated reason was that the applicant had not provided enough information to show that parking arising from the proposed use could be adequately accommodated on the site.
The application was refused because the submitted information did not demonstrate that parking demand generated by the proposed vehicle body repair use could be satisfactorily accommodated within the site. The official portal decision is recorded as Refused on 2007-01-29.
