Tracey Bell has submitted a second application for a dental surgery at 12 Malew Street, in Castletown.
Her first application was turned down by the government planning committee due to concern the proposed flat roof would ‘result in an unattractive and incongruous addition which would be harmful to the conservation area and perception of views from the castle’.
Her latest bid (14/01032/B) remains to change the use of the shop, for internal alterations and a single-storey extension at the rear.
But this time the flat roof has been replaced with a lean-to pitched roof.
The surgery would comprise a reception, three surgeries, two cross-infection rooms – one with a stock room, an x-ray room and a staff area.
It is anticipated there would be eight full time members of staff.
Opening hours would be 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 5pm on Saturday.
Parking would be in disc zones and other public car parks.
In June 2014, planning approval was granted to Mrs Bell for the conversion of 10 Malew Street to a dental aesthetic clinic or to a cafe.
