# DEC Decision Notice

Isle of Man Advertising & Public Relations Limited
Quay House
South Quay
Douglas
IM1 5AR

## Town and Country Planning Act 1999

### Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations 2013

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure has under application reference **14/00430/D, DECLINED CONSENT** to Smart Advertising Limited, for the Erection of advertising signage along boundary wall at Smart Wash Premises South Quay Douglas Isle of Man IM1 5AY for the following reason(s):

1. The proposed advertising signage boards would, given the site's relatively open and highly visible nature, have a detrimental impact in respect of the visual amenity of the area. As such, the proposal conflicts with Environment Policy 38 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan (2007).

2. The proposed advertising signage would not carry advertisements relating to the business carried on within the site. As such, the proposal conflicts with General Policy 7 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan (2007).

Date of Issue:
3rd July 2014

M Gallagher
Director of Planning and Building Control
