In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the PLANNING COMMITTEE of the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Albany Developments Ltd Proposal: Erection of five dwellings at: Bakehouse And Garage Grosvenor Road Douglas Isle of Man IM1 3EN
which was considered on 29th June 2007, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: 2nd July 2007
Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Secretary Planning Committee
Reasons For Refusal:
- The proposed development by reason of its design and layout will:
i) overdevelop the site resulting in the under provision of car parking and manoeuvring space which will lead to on-street parking within the area and result in noise and general disturbance to the amenity of nearby residents; and
ii) create a poor outlook from the dwellings on plots 1 and 3 due to the parking of a private motor vehicle in front of the windows that serve a habitable room.
This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Article 3(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
