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:** Mr M Forbes
**Proposal:** Erection of a detached garage / store and garden shed
at: Clover Cottage
Main Road

IM7 2HF

which was considered on 28th September 2007, for the reasons set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 1st October 2007

Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Deputy Secretary Planning Committee

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The proposed garage/store by reason of its siting, size, height and prominent location would result in the introduction of an unduly prominent and incongruous feature into the locality when viewed from Main Road and Mill Race, which would be to the detriment of the visual amenities of the area.

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.
