Marshall Cryer Architects

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

**Name:** National Children's Homes (NCH)
**Proposal:** Approval in principle for the erection of a residential dwelling
at:
- Land At
- Bonwick House
- Lezayre Road
- Ramsey
- Isle Of Man
- IM8 2LU

which was considered on 14 July 2006, for the **reasons** set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 17 July, 2006

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

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The residential development of the application site is contrary to the interests of highway safety and therefore unacceptable by reason that:
a) the extent of the application site frontage onto Lezayre Road is inadequate to provide visibility splays of a minimum of 2 metres by 70 metres; and
b) the formation and use of a vehicular access onto Lezayre Road is contrary to the policy of the Department of Transport’s Highway Division which precludes the formation of minor frontage access on primary distributor roads.

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

The decision contained in this notice does not become final until either;
- The time for requesting an appeal has expired; or
- Any appeal has been determined;

Whichever is the later.

Any appeal against this decision must be in writing and must be received by this Department within 21 days of the date of this notice.

A form and guidance notes are available from either the Planning Office, Tel 685950, or to down load from the Department's website www.gov.im/dlge/planning/plan

You should note that a copy of the Officer's report which led to the decision being made, along with any correspondence relative to the application, is available for inspection at the Department.
