REASONS FOR REFUSAL
Application Ref No: 04/01222/A
- The site is not zoned for development on the Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982 and the rural location is recognised as having High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance.
The proposed dwelling would be contrary to the land use zoning and also the planning policies set out in Planning Circular 1/88 "Residential Development - Houses in the Countryside". There are no exceptional circumstances to warrant the setting aside of the Department's countryside policies which are in place to prevent the proliferation of unwarranted development in the countryside.
- 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.
