The Town And Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2005
TO: MP Associates, Salisbury House, Victoria Street, Douglas, IM1 2LW [Copies as per Circulation List] In pursuance of his powers under the above Acts and Order the MINISTER for Local Government and the Environment, following report by the appointed person, does hereby REFUSE the application by - Mr. I. Martin - erection of two canvas canopies and one glazed canopy and creation of an external seating area, Admiral House, 12 Loch Promenade, Douglas, IM1 2LX, for the following reason:-
The proposed development, would be inimical to the safety and convenience of road users, in that (a) the proposed seating area would reduce the effective width of the footway at a point where there is already a potential hazard to pedestrians caused by the manoeuvring of commercial vehicles; and (b) if the footway were to be narrowed as proposed, it would be likely to become more congested on occasions, with consequent interruptions to the free flow of pedestrian traffic
