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 Mark Davenport Proposal: Alterations and erection of an extension to dwelling at: 50 Wybourn Drive Onchan Isle Of Man IM3 4AN
which was considered on 6th December 2011, for the reasons set out below. Date of Issue: 6th December 2011 Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas
Reason(S) For Refusal:
The proposed development would be contrary to General Policy 2 and Paragraph 8.12.1 of the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2007 in that:
1) it would introduce too many dormer windows onto the side of the property, which will result in them being a prominent and incongruous feature within the streetscene, and will be detrimental to the visual amenities of the locality;
2) the development would result in demonstrable harm to the residential environment of No.48 Wybourn Drive in terms of actual and perceived overlooking and loss of privacy and
3) the development would result in demonstrable harm to the residential environment of No.52 Wybourn Drive in terms of actual and perceived overlooking, loss of privacy, being overbearing and visually intrusive.
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.
