# Refusal Notice

## Town and Country Planning Act 1999

## Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005

Penketh - Millar
23 West Quay
Ramsey
Isle Of Man
IM8 1DL

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:

Name: Mr & Mrs Richard Jones
Proposal: Erection of a garage/storage building with room over to replace existing detached garage
at: Ash Lodge
Patrick Road
St Johns
Isle Of Man
IM4 3BR

which was considered on 31st May 2011, for the reasons set out below.

Date of Issue: 31st May 2011

Murray House
Mount Havelock
Douglas

## Reason(S) For Refusal:

1. The design of the building and the inclusion of accommodation at first floor level would result in the building having the appearance of a dwelling. As such the development would be tantamount to a new dwelling in the countryside and would therefore be contrary to the objectives of GP3 and HP4 of the Strategic Plan.

This decision was made by the Senior Planning Officer in accordance with the authority delegated to her under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
