Refusal Notice 05/01890/A
Town and Country Planning Acts, 1934 - 1991
Isle of Man Planning Scheme (Development Plan) Order 1982
Partington Nixon & Kinrade 7-9 Drinkwater Street Douglas IM1 1AT
In pursuance of powers granted under the above Acts and Order the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: The Estate Of David Style Proposal: Approval in principle for a residential development on land forming at: Parts Of Fields 522699 And 524050 Adjacent To Sea Croft Quines Hill Port Soderick Braddan Isle Of Man
which was considered on 24 November 2005, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: 6 December, 2005 Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Secretary Planning Committee
Reasons For Refusal:
- At present the land is not zoned for residential development and as such the proposed development is contrary to well established planning policy based on a presumption against new build residential development in the countryside. Whilst the Planning Committee recognises that the application site is zoned for residential development within the emerging revision of the area plan the fact remains that this plan has not been considered by Tynwald and as such an approval for development on the site has to be judged to be premature until the area plan process has been exhausted.
- Notwithstanding the first reason for refusal the planning application does not provide sufficient information regarding the means of foul sewage disposal from the site, which is within an area that is not served by public mains sewerage.
- 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.
Note 1: The decision contained in this notice does not become final until:-
- the time for requesting a review of the initial decision has expired; or
- any review of the initial decision has been completed; or
- the time for requesting an appeal in relation to any decision at review has expired; or
- any appeal has been completed.
Note 2: Rights of review against the decision are attached.
