Tel 01624 685950 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 Frank Sweeney, Ref 25/90196/B, for the Construction of 14 bungalows including vehicular access and associated infrastructure at Land Adjacent To Ginger Hall Hotel Ballamanagh Road Sulby Isle Of Man for the following reason(s): 1. The committee overturned the officer recommendation and voted to refuse the application for the following reason: The density of the development and its relationship with the bungalows to the West results in a development which does not reflect the local character and causes visual harm. Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that adequate drainage could be provided. It is considered that the proposed access onto the A3, which would require vehicles turning right to cross the flow of traffic close to a bend, would be unsafe. The proposal is therefore considered contrary to Strategic Plan (2016) General Policy 2 (b, c, h, i and j). Date of Issue: 25th February 2026 A MORGAN Interim Director of Planning and Building Control
