DEC Decision Notice
Ellis Brown 12 Strathallan Crescent Queens Promenade Douglas IM2 4NR
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 JM Project Management Ltd, Ref 19/00677/B, for the Erection of a detached dwelling with integral garage (amendment to approved dwelling under 16/01314/REM) at Plot 22 Ballaglonney Housing Estate Main Road Crosby Isle Of Man for the following reason(s):
- The extension, by virtue of its flat roofed design, lack of windows in some of its elevations and unsympathetic incorporation of a flue is considered to have a detrimental impact on the appearance of the property and the wider estate and as such the application is considered to fail to accord with General Policy 2b, c and g and is not supported. This is particularly unacceptable as the house is not yet commenced and efforts could have been made to build a larger property with the flue and additional floor area designed to be part of and complementary to the main dwelling.
Date of Issue: 2nd August 2019
Director of Planning and Building Control
