### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The conversion and erection of a two storey building into two tourist units in this location is tantamount to the creation of a new residential dwelling in the countryside which would be contrary to the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982 in that:-
(a) the proposed development is not zoned for residential development;
(b) its residential development is contrary to the provisions of Planning Circular 1/88; and
(c) the construction of replacement buildings of similar or even identical form is contrary to Planning Circular 3/89.

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
