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: Jeff & Susan Magee Proposal: Formation of parking area and vehicular access onto highway to front elevation at: 28 Albany Road
Douglas
Isle of Man

which was considered on 13th April 2010, for the reasons set out below. Date of Issue: 15th April 2010 Murray House Mount Havelock
Douglas
Mrs P Faragher
Deputy Secretary to the Planning Committee
Reason(S) For Refusal:
- It is considered that the introduction of vehicles into the front garden area, and the removal of the boundary walling adjacent to the highway would be detrimental upon the pleasant street scene. The proposed development is therefore considered to have an adverse impact on the appearance and character of the Conservation Area and would thus be contrary to General Policy 2 and Environment Policy 35 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007.
This decision was made by the Senior Planning Officer in accordance with the authority delegated to her under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
