Tel 01624 685950 Arch-Tec (IOM) Ltd The Architectural Studio 2nd Floor 20 Duke Street Douglas IM1 2AY TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure)(No 2) Order 2013 In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Mr David Salkeld, Ref 16/00886/B, for the Erection of a replacement dwelling at Perk Cottage Knock Froy Road Santon Isle Of Man IM4 1JD for the following reason(s): 1. It is not considered that the increase in the residential curtilage and corresponding increase in the visual impact of the residential development and use of this site is justified by the improvement in vehicular access, parking and manoeuvring on site, given that the countryside is protected for its own sake in Environment Policies 1 and 2. 2. The proposed new dwelling, by virtue of its height, size and mass, would have a significant and significantly greater impact than the existing cottage, on the character and appearance of the surrounding area which is identified as being of High Landscape Value and Scenic Significance, contrary to the provisions and objectives of Housing Policy 14. The new dwelling would be more prominent and of significantly greater proportions than is advocated in Planning Circular 3/91. Whilst the policy allows for replacement dwellings of a size greater than 50% larger than the existing, this is where the existing property is of poor form, which this is not, or where there are exceptional circumstances and it is not considered that in this case, that there are. This permission relates to drawings 1329.10 and 1329.11 both received on 3rd November, 2016. Date of Issue: 14th December 2016 Interim Director of Planning and Building Control
