Mrs C Dudley
Deputy Secretary to the Planning Committee
Reason(S) For Refusal:
- This proposal is contrary to Housing Policy 16 in the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007, in that the extensions would enlarge a non-traditional dwelling in the countryside and increase the impact of the building as viewed by the public.
- This proposal is contrary to Environment Policy 1 in the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007, in that the proposed garage would create a new detached structure which would not preserve the rural character of the open countryside.
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.
