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:** Mr Robert & Mrs Diane Griffiths
**Proposal:** Creation of a vehicular access and the retention of 1.5m wide pathway through a sodbank
**at:** The Bungalow
Main Road
Ballaugh
Isle Of Man
IM7 5ED

which was considered on 4 November 2005, for the reasons set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 10th November, 2005
**Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas**

Secretary Planning Committee

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The site is not designated for development or for residential use. The site is visible from the adjacent highway. The creation of a vehicular access and continued use of the pathway to the site would intensify the unauthorised use of the site as residential land and would represent an unwarranted intrusion into the countryside. The applicant has not demonstrated that there is sufficient need to justify the creation of an additional vehicular access and has not demonstrated that there is sufficient need to justify an encroachment into agricultural land.

2. 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.
