Tel 01624 685950 GBS Design Services Ltd Odin's Cottage Ballachrink Farm Glen Road Colby IM9 4HW 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 Dawneil Ltd, Ref 22/00374/B, for the Removal of attached garage and replaced with a 2 storey attached dwelling, the removal of exiting rear conservatory replaced with a single storey extension, the removal of the existing chimney stacks, replace windows and doors, new render to the walls and replacement roof tiles at 5 Falcon Cliff Terrace Douglas Isle Of Man IM2 4AU for the following reason(s): 1. Given the relationship of the proposed dwelling to the site, adjoining semi-detached cottage at 4 Falcon Cliff Terrace and locality, the proposed development would adversely affect the character of the existing dwelling and locality by reason of its siting, scale, form and layout, in that it would alter the existing setting of the area when viewed from Falcon Cliff Terrace which would be contrary to General Policy 2 (b) and (c). 2. Whilst there is no issue with the ground floor rear extension, wall re-rendering and roof replacement, the proposed side extension as viewed from the front would fill the gap with its neighbouring property 'Clifton', Falcon Cliff Terrace and alter the historic street pattern which features a clear break between the existing semi-detached property to which it would be attached and the existing terrace to the north-east, thus creating an incongruous continuous terraced appearance when viewed from the street scene, contrary to Environment Policy 42, General Policy 2 (b) and Strategic Policy 3 (b). 3. The erection of the new two storey side extension with two windows to the side which have views to the rear yard of 'Shenstone,' Falcon Cliff Terrace at a distance less than 14m is considered unneighbourly and would adversely affect the privacy and enjoyment of the rear yard of this neighbouring property, contrary to General Policy 2 (g) of the Strategic Plan. Date of Issue: 12th August 2022
