Officer's Report

The Application Site

The application site forms the curtilage of Burleigh, Richmond Road, Ramsey, which is a single storey detached property located on the eastern side of Richmond Road, which is north of Jurby Road.

Planning Policy

The application site is within an area of residential under the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Ramsey Local Plan) (No. 2) Order 1998, hereafter referred to as the Ramsey Local Plan. The site is not within a Conservation Area.

Planning History

Alterations, installation of dormer windows, creation of a new window and driveway (07/00469/B) - APPROVED

Erection of conservatory (98/01946/B) – APPROVED

PROPOSAL

The application proposes alterations and installation of dormer windows to front elevation. REPRESENTATIONS Ramsey Town Commissioners advise that they have no objection

The Chief Fire Officer make no comment on the merit of the proposed development but request that an informative note be attached to any approval decision notice.

We have received no privately written representations objecting to the application.

ASSESSMENT / RECOMMENDATION

The previous application received approval for two flat roofed dormers to the front elevation. This submission proposed only one flat roofed dormer to replace the previous scheme. I consider the proposal to be an acceptable alteration which would have little or no visual impact upon the street scene. For this reasons the proposal would seem appropriate in this location and therefore my recommendation is for an approval.

I consider that the following parties that made representations to the planning application do not meet the criteria of Government Circular 1/06 and should not be afforded interested party status:
