TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure)(No 2) Order 2013
In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Mr John & Mrs Gillian Gray, Ref 18/00476/B, for the Alterations, creation of additional vehicular access and associated landscaping works at Thie-My-Chree Tynwald Road Peel Isle Of Man IM5 1JN for the following reason(s):
- The application has failed to provide sufficient evidence or justification of need for an additional access at Thie-My-Chree, the proposal does not facilitate any kind of development and would result in the unnecessary and consequential loss of a considerable number of trees particularly along the road side that positively contribute to the visual break in development along a main route heading into Peel. The proposal would negatively impact the character and appearance of the streetscene and adversely affect the visual amenity of the locality contrary to GP (b), (c), (f) and (g).
