To: Dave Luton Design,

In pursuance of their powers under the above Acts and Order the PLANNING COMMITTEE of the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby REFUSE the application made by you on behalf of

Mr. Whaley,

Alterations and extensions to provide additional living accommodation, double garage and porch, Upper Kirkill Farm, Linague, Rushen which was considered at a meeting held on the 15th April, 1988, for the reasons set out on the attached schedule. Date of Issue: 13 May, 1988.

Note 1: The decision contained in this notice does not become final until -
a) the time for requesting a review of the initial decision has expired; or
b) any review of the initial decision has been completed; or
c) the time for requesting an appeal in relation to any decision at review has expired; or
d) any appeal has been completed.

Note 2: Rights of review against the decision of the Planning Committee are attached.

REASONS FOR REFUSAL
Application No. 87/4755

1. The scale of the proposed extensions is such as to destroy the character of the existing building; the completed development would make an undesirable visual impact, being conspicuously located within an unspoiled area of high landscape value and scenic significance.
NOTE: This refusal is without prejudice to the submission of a new application showing the floor area of the existing dwelling increased by no more than 50%, and any extensions re-designed in consultation with the Department's Architect and Planning Officer.
