# Refusal Decision Notice

## Town and Country Planning Acts, 1934 - 1991

### Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982

Mr Ashley Pettit
4 Osborne Terrace
Douglas
IM1 3LH

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Acts and Order the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby **REFUSE** the following application made on behalf of:

**Name:** Social Services Division
**Proposal:** Erection of second storey over garage and a rear porch and lift to provide additional disabled access and living accommodation,
at:
30 Slieau Whallian Park
St. Johns
IM4 3JJ

which was considered on 15 July 2005, for the **reasons** set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 22nd July, 2005

**Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas**
Secretary Planning Committee

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The proposed conservatory would, by virtue of its height, restrict the light available to the rear yard and conservatory of the adjoining property – Number 31 – so as to unacceptably affect the amenities thereof.

**NOTE** The Planning Committee has sympathy with the applicant’s personal circumstances but is not persuaded that these overcome the concerns regarding the amenities of the neighbouring property. The Planning Committee recommends that the applicant considers alternative means of providing the required accommodation without adversely affecting neighbouring property.

**NOTE** This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 of the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982.

Note 1: The decision contained in this notice does not become final until:-
- the time for requesting a review of the initial decision has expired; or
- any review of the initial decision has been completed; or
- the time for requesting an appeal in relation to any decision at review has expired; or
- any appeal has been completed.

Note 2: Rights of review against the decision are attached.
