Promoor Limited
Third Floor
10 Prospect Hill
Douglas
IM1 1EJ

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:** Promoor Limited
**Proposal:** Alterations to and conversion of former nursing home to three apartments
**at:**
Elm Bank

which was considered on 2 September 2005, for the reasons set out below.

**Secretary Planning Committee**
*(Signature)*

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The parking area provided is inadequate to serve the needs of the development.

2. The balconies to the rear would have an unacceptable impact on the amenity of neighbouring properties due to their size and location by virtue of the overlooking of the rear gardens of these properties and the direct overlooking of the upper floor window of the neighbouring property.

**NOTE** This decision is without prejudice to an application being submitted which addresses the issue of parking and overlooking from the balconies.
