Tel 01624 685950 Mr Barry Murphy 3 Altdale Terrace Lezayre Road Ramsey, Isle of Man IM8 2LR 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 Mark & Nicky Barnett, Ref 24/91334/B, for the Construction of Agricultural Storage Building at Field 534635 Slegaby Lane Hillberry Onchan Isle Of Man IM4 5BN for the following reason(s): 1. The Department is not satisfied that there is sufficient justification for the proposed building to warrant setting aside the presumption against development outside areas zoned for development. Furthermore, the proposed size and siting will be seen in an isolated position within the countryside, it is not considered appropriate and would harm the character and quality of the landscape. As such, the proposal is concluded to represent unwarranted development that is detrimental to the amenity of the countryside contrary to the provision of General Policy 3(g) and Environment Policy 1. 2. There is no overriding need for the proposed agricultural building, as has been assessed in the preceding sections of this report. No exceptions can be justified within the submission, as required by General Policy 3f, and there is a conflict in the information provided for the proposed building.
