Officer's Report

Planning approval was granted in 2002 for the construction of a replacement dwelling at Rosehill Lodge, Richmond Hill, Braddan, this following the purchase of Rosehill Lodge by the Department of Transport to facilitate highways improvements.

The current application seeks approval for the use of the property as tourist accommodation. The property is remote and any additional noise and disturbance generated by tourist occupancy would not, it is considered result in adverse amenity issues.

Subject to an appropriate condition, the proposal is considered to be acceptable.

It is considered that all parties, who submitted comments, with the exception of the following: Chief Fire Officer accord with the requirements of Planning Circular 1/06 and are therefore afforded interested party status.
