Mr James Cryan Kings Guest House Queens Promenade Douglas Isle of Man IM2 4PL
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 James Cryan Proposal: Registered Building consent for the installation of an awning and signage (Retrospective) (In association with 10/01587/D) Registered Building Nos. 177 at: Kings Guest House Queens Promenade Douglas Isle of Man IM2 4PL
which was considered on 13th October 2011, for the reasons set out below. Date of Issue: 17th October 2011 Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Mrs P Faragher Deputy Secretary to the Planning Committee
Reason(S) For Refusal:
- The erection of an advertising canopy would be contrary to General Policy 2 and Environment Policies 32, 35 and 37 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007 in that the canopy appears as a tacked on addition to the building and essentially is an alien feature to the building. It is judged that the retention of the canopy would adversely affect the setting of the registered building.
This decision was made by the Development Control Manager under the authority delegated by the Department under Regulation 4(2) of the Registered Building Regulations 2005.
