Tel 01624 685950 Cromptons Architectural Design & Project Management Services 21 Stanley Road Peel Isle Of Man IM5 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 Simon & Mrs Sharon Mellor, Ref 21/01225/B, for the Extension and conversion of detached outbuilding to provide living and tourist accommodation at Ballachrink Mooar Sound Road Glen Maye Isle Of Man IM5 3BJ for the following reason(s): 1. The culmination of extensions covering over the existing elevations and alterations including excessive roof lights and hardstanding result in an adverse and overbearing visual impact on the original historic and social interest and character of the existing outbuilding contrary to Environment Policy 16 (b and c) and Housing Policy 11 (d) of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 2. The proposal also fails to demonstrate that it would not be at risk of flooding or that suitable mitigation could be introduced, or that it would not make worse existing flood risk through increased surface area and hardstanding areas contrary to Environment Policies 10 and 13 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 3. The application fails to provide sufficient information in respect of trees and so it is unknown whether there would be any adverse impact on the designated woodland area or loss of trees contrary to Environment Policy 3 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016. 4. There is a lack of detailed information provided in respect of how foul sewerage will be dealt with and no information as to how the watercourse will be protected during the shorter term construction phase contrary to Environment Policy 7 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
