Castletown Commissioners apply for permission to have new works depot

Local authority says the School Hill site would be 'ideal'

Castletown Commissioners has applied for planning permission to create a new works depot next to its School Hill housing estate. 

This will include a polytunnel, workshop as well as a staff canteen area and ten parking spaces.

The local authority's previous depot has recently been 'disposed' of as it was a 'significant maintenance liability'. 

It's owned by the commissioners and it believes the location is 'ideal' for access to its housing stock and other sites within the town.
