Decision Notice
Mr John Wilson Kempis House Orrisdale Road Ballasalla IM9 3AE
TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019
In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act, and subordinate Orders and Regulations, the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Mr & Mrs Kenneth James and Kirree Allitt and Norton, Ref 24/91158/B, for the Create dormer at roof level, internal remodelling, replace windows throughout, replace garden shed with garden room and store (in association with 24/01159/CON) at 8 Lyndale Avenue Peel Isle Of Man IM5 1JY for the following reason(s):
- By virtue of its scale, siting, overall bulk and appearance, the proposed dormer window is considered to represent a large, incongruous addition that will visually dominate and interrupt the simple symmetry of the roof to the rear of the dwelling. The proposed dormer window is therefore considered to conflict with General Policy 2 (b) and (c). It also conflicts with Environment Policy 32 due to the addition failing to preserve the character and appearance of the Conservation Area as a result of the harm to the original dwelling and simple architectural style and appearance of Lyndale Terrace.
Date of Issue: 18th March 2025
