This application sought permission to erect a dwelling with an integral garage on Plot 5, Majestic Drive, Onchan. The Planning Committee refused the application at its meeting on 29 April 1994. Two formal reasons were given for refusal. First, the proposed dwelling was considered unattractive and unsympathetic in terms of its design, proximity, and relationship to neighbouring properties, amounting to overdevelopment of a constrained site. Second, the design failed to acknowledge the corner position of the plot, which had been a specific condition attached to an earlier approval in principle under a previous reference. The officer report noted tight distances between the proposed building and neighbouring properties, with the gap to no.
The Planning Committee refused this application in April 1994. The proposed dwelling was considered unattractive and out of keeping with neighbouring properties, and the site was judged to be overdeveloped given its limited size. The design also failed to respond appropriately to the corner plot, which had been a specific requirement attached to an earlier approval in principle.
