Planning Refusal Notice
Town and Country Planning Act 1999
Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005
Cornerstone Architects
79 Parliament Street Ramsey Isle Of Man IM8 1AQ
In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Mr Kenneth Chesterson Proposal: Erection of a replacement dwelling at: Balleigh Cottage Jurby Road Lezayre Ramsey Isle Of Man IM7 2EA
which was considered on 7th November 2011, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: 9th November 2011
Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Mrs C Dudley Deputy Secretary to the Planning Committee
Reason(S) For Refusal:
- The proposal fails to accord with the provisions of Housing Policy 14 insofar as the proposed dwelling is more than double the size of the existing property with a resultant greater visual impact and there are therefore no provisions within the Strategic Plan to support the proposal which would result in a significantly larger dwelling with a greater visual impact and where the new dwelling would be larger and more imposing that the typical Manx cottage described in Planning Circular 3/91.
This decision was made by the Development Control Manager in accordance with the authority delegated to her under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
