Tel 01624 685950 Mr Gareth M Roberts THE NOOK STANLEY MOUNT EAST ISLE OF MAN IM8 1NP 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 Glyn Hoosen-Owen, Ref 24/91323/B, for the Demolition of stable block and adjacent buildings and construction of annexe. at Meadow View Cranstal Road Bride Isle Of Man IM7 4BN for the following reason(s): 1. The application site is located within an area of 'white land' not zoned for development, under the Isle of Man Development Plan Order 1982. In such locations development proposals must demonstrate compliance with, amongst other policies, General Policy 3 of the IoM Strategic Plan. Whilst the need for ancillary accommodation for an elderly relative is acknowledged, the extent of the proposed accommodation, which is described as an annexe, is tantamount to a self-contained 2-bedroom dwellinghouse and there is concern that there would be no functional link between the principle dwelling and annexe either immediately upon occupation or in the future. The proposals therefore create a new dwelling in the open countryside and would form an unsustainable and unjustified development. The proposals are therefore assessed as being contrary to Strategic Policies 1 and 2, Spatial Policy 5, Housing Policy 4 and General Policy 3 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan.
