### Reasons For Refusal:

1. Whilst the operation of boarding kennels is often an activity which takes place in a rural area, in this case the site is not considered suitable for such activities on the basis that there are in relatively close proximity a number of dwellings whose occupation would be detrimentally affected through the noise of dogs barking.

This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Article 3(1) of the Town and Country Planning (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.
