In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the PLANNING COMMITTEE of the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Mrs S Dixon Proposal: Approval in principle to convert existing stable block into living accommodation at: Amisfield St. Judes Isle Of Man IM7 2EW
which was considered on 2 February 2007, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: February, 2007
Murray House Mount Havelock Douglas Secretary Planning Committee
Reasons For Refusal:
- The proposed development would result in an additional dwelling in the countryside, contrary to the Department policies as set out in Planning Circular 1/88. Conversion of the building into a dwelling would be contrary to the provisions of Planning Circular 3/89, Renovation of Buildings in the Countryside, insofar as the buildings are not considered to be worthy of registration, are not otherwise of particular architectural, historic, or social interest; and do not contribute beneficially to the character of the countryside as viewed from highways, footpaths, or other places accessible to the public. In addition there is no evidence that the current use is redundant, and therefore contrary with paragraph 3 of the Circular.
This decision was made by the Planning Committee constituted in accordance with Article 3(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
The decision contained in this notice does not become final until either;
- The time for requesting an appeal has expired; or
