# Refusal Notice May 2005

## Town and Country Planning Acts, 1934 - 1991

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

M P Associates Ltd
Salisbury House
Victoria Street
Douglas
IM1 2LW

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:** Forest Homes Ltd
**Proposal:** Approval in Principle for the demolition of existing shop and flat and erect four apartments with on site parking (Re submission to PA 04/02456),
at:
Shop
67 Derby Road
Douglas
IM2 3EA

which was considered on 6 May 2005, for the **reasons** set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 19 May, 2005
**Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas**
*Secretary Planning Committee*

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. A new building of the indicated size and form would be dominant and out of character with the adjoining terraces; the proposal would thus constitute overdevelopment.

2. The parking provision would be unsatisfactory:
(a) in terms of the number of spaces for four 2-bedroomed flats; and
(b) in terms of the inclusion of forecourt parking, which would be visually poor.

3. 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.
