# Refusal Decision Notice

## Town and Country Planning Act 1999

## Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005

Miss P Newton
2 Glen View
South Cape
Laxey

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:

Name: Mr Gary Walker
Proposal: Erection of a kennel block
at: Melrose Cottage
St Judes Road
Andreas
Isle Of Man
IM7 3HF

which was considered on 19th August 2010, for the reasons set out below.

Date of Issue: 20th August 2010

Murray House
Mount Havelock
Douglas

## Reason(S) For Refusal:

1. The level of noise generated from the accommodation of dogs on site through the proposed ten kennels, would result in an unacceptable impact upon the residential amenities of the nearby properties contrary to Environmental Policy 22 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan.
2. The visibility from the access driveway onto the A17 is inadequate to serve the needs of the development and therefore would be prejudicial to highway safety.

This decision was made by the Director of Planning and Building Control in accordance with the authority delegated to him under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
