# DEC Decision Notice

Mr Richard Wilkinson 1 Snaefell View Jurby IM7 3BF

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 Richard Wilkinson, Ref 20/01208/B, for the Erection of two sheds for agricultural purposes at Field 211090 Sandygate Ramsey Isle Of Man for the following reason(s):

- 1. The erection of the proposed sheds would have a detrimental visual impact which would harm the character and quality of the landscape contrary to General Policy 3 and Environment Policies 1 and 15 of the IOM Strategic Plan.
- 2. It is not considered there is sufficient agricultural need for the buildings and that the buildings scale, materials, colour, siting, form and overall design and appearance are not sympathetic to the landscape which they form a part and therefore contrary to Environment Policy 1 and 15 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan.

Date of Issue: 2nd December 2020

## Director of Planning and Building Control

Guidance Note

This decision was made by the Planning Committee in accordance with the authority delegated to it.

This decision refers only to that applied for under the Town and Country Planning Act 1999 and its subordinate legislation.

A copy of the Officer’s report and any correspondence which led to the assessment and decision is available to view on the Government’s website (via Online Services www.gov.im/Viewapplications) or at the Department’s offices Murray House, Mount Havelock, Douglas.

Appeal Any appeal must be in writing and submitted to the Department within 21 days of the date of this Notice. The appeal must contain:

- • the grounds for making the appeal;
- • payment of the planning appeal fee (currently £285); and if relevant, confirmation that the appellant wishes to have the appeal determined by means of an inquiry and payment of the additional inquiry fee (currently £100).

Where the appeal is submitted by the applicant they must:

- • specify in detail and by reference to material planning considerations the reasons why the appellant disagrees with that determination; and
- • Where against a refusal, on the grounds of deficient detail or supporting documentation, set out why they consider the information or documentation forming part of the application was sufficient in the circumstance.

If the appeal is submitted by someone who has interested Person Status but is not listed in Article 4(2) of the Development Procedure Order 2019, that person must relate their grounds for making the appeal to issues which they included in representations made prior to the application being determined.

Failure to meet all of the relevant above requirements will mean that the appeal cannot be validated.

If this decision becomes final because there is no appeal, the Department’s public reference copy (counter copy) of the planning application may be collected by the applicant or their agent from Murray House.
