# Planning Refusal Notice 08/01992/B

## Town and Country Planning Act 1999

### Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005

GCA Architects
Carmodil Beg Studio
Glen Road
Ballaugh

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

**Name:** Mr Robinson
**Proposal:** Erection of replacement building to provide garage, store and study area
at:
Ballamenagh Moar Farm
Ballamenagh Road
Baldrine
Isle Of Man
IM4 6AJ

which was considered on 30th January 2009, for the reasons set out below.

**Date of Issue:** 2nd February 2009

Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Deputy Secretary to the Planning Committee

### Reason(S) For Refusal:

1. The application site is not zoned for development and is within an area of High Landscape Value or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance. Therefore the proposal is contrary to both adopted general planning policy within the Isle of Man Strategic Plan and The Isle of Man Development Plan, which seek to restrict such development within the countryside. The proposal would harm the character and quality of the landscape and introduce an incongruous visual intrusion that would have the appearance of a newly built dwelling in the open countryside.

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 download from the Department’s website www.gov.im/dlge/planning/plan/applications/decision.xml

A copy of the Officer’s report, which led to this decision, is attached for reference. This report, together with correspondence relative to the application, is available for inspection by anyone wishing to view it at the Department.
