Tel 01624 685950 Richard Green Associates Kiondroghad House Kiondroghad Road Andreas Isle Of Man IM7 3EL 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 Mrs Joanne Crellin, Ref 19/00182/B, for the Erection of dwelling with detached garage at Guilcaugh Cottage St Judes Road Andreas Isle Of Man IM7 3HF for the following reason(s): 1. The proposed erection of a dwelling on an alternative site to that which is intended to replace, on agricultural land in the open countryside is considered not acceptable in principle. The applicant has not demonstrated that the proposal will result in 'overall environmental improvement' to warrant support in terms of Housing Policy 14. The proposal therefore conflicts with General Policy 3 and Housing Policy 14 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 2. The proposed development, by virtue of the proliferation of domestic buildings on and agricultural site in the open countryside, the siting of the proposed dwelling closer to the highway than the existing dwelling, the significantly larger domestic curtilage than the existing dwelling with a much greater scope of domestic paraphernalia, the potential removal of over 29m of Manx sod hedge and the creation of a domestic access in a rural setting, would unacceptably harm the characteristics of the existing agricultural site and the rural character of the surrounding countryside. The proposal therefore conflicts with General Policy 3, Environmental Policy 1 and Housing Policy 14 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
