/ Isle of Man Government £njn k'drfJir Mr Eric Carey Ballasalla Farm Jurby West Isle Of Man IM7 3AS 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 Infrastructure determined to REFUSE a planning application by Mr Eric Carey, Ref 14/00310/B, for the Erection of a timber shed for use as a farm shop and creation of gravel area for parking and turning at Field Number 134889 Lezayre Road Glen Tramman Ramsey Isle Of Man for the following reason(s): From the information provided it has not been adequately demonstrated that all the items to be sold from the proposed farm shop are to be produced solely from this site and not off site. Accordingly, it is considered the proposal for a farm shop is premature and therefore would be an inappropriate form of development on this site, and contrary to General Policy 3, Environment Policy 18 and Business Policy 10 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan. 1. The proposed timber shed and hard surfaced area, both in isolated positions within an agricultural field, would result in built development encroaching into the open countryside to the detriment of the character and quality of the countryside. Consequently, the proposal would be contrary to General Policy 3 and Environment Policy 1 and 2 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan which all seek to protect the countryside from inappropriate development. 2. From the submitted plans the required access arrangements and visibility splays are not achieved, therefore the development could lead to an access with inadequate visibility, detrimental to highway safety for all users of the access and the existing road contrary to Transport Policy 4 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan. 3.
