Reasons For Refusal

Application Ref No: 03/00234/B

1. Whilst sympathetic to the personal circumstances of the applicant, it is considered that these are insufficient to overide the well established policies relating to the creation of new dwellings in the countryside.
2. It is considered that the proposal would neither preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the soon to be designated St Marks Conservation Area in which the site is located.
3. This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 of the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982.
