*Act Rep*  *R C Allen*
Secretary Planning Committee

### Reasons For Refusal:

1. The extension to the rear of the property will result in a poor outlook and lack of light and amenity for the future residents of the apartments, and will have an unacceptable impact on the neighbouring properties.

2. The proposed conversion makes no provision for on-site car parking, in an area where on-site parking is at a premium, contrary to the interests of road safety.

3. This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 of the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982.

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

Note 2: Rights of review against the decision are attached. 1c
