In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Mr & Mrs Les Beards Proposal: Approval in principle for the erection of an agricultural dwelling at:
- Currach Ne Frey
- Clyeen Farm
- Douglas Road
- Kirk Michael
- Isle Of Man
- IM6 1AU
which was considered on 20th August 2010, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: 20th August 2010
Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Reason(S) For Refusal:
- There has not been demonstrated essential agricultural need for a dwelling on the site so as to warrant the setting aside of established policies which seek to protect the character of the countryside for its own sake. Accordingly the proposal fails to comply with General Policy 3, Housing Policy 4 and Housing Policy 7 and therefore contravenes Strategic Policy 2, Environmental Policy 1 and Environmental Policy 2 of the Strategic Plan.
This decision was made by the Director of Planning and Building Control in accordance with the authority delegated to him under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
