In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Mr John Campbell Proposal: Erection of garden walling and inclusion of gates within existing vehicular access at: 49 Sea Cliff Road Onchan Isle Of Man IM3 2JD
which was considered on 26th July 2011, for the reasons set out below. Date of Issue: 29th July 2011 Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas

This decision was made by the Director of Planning and Building Control in accordance with the authority delegated to him under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
