The occupation of the dwelling hereby approved shall be limited to a person engaged or last engaged solely in agriculture on the Isle of Man, or a widow or widower of such a person, or any resident dependants. Reason: The site is in an area where new dwellings are not normally approved except where an agricultural need has been established and accepted by the Department. 6. The reserved matters application must include full details of a landscaping scheme to establish the curtilage of the new dwelling. Such landscaping should also seek to mitigate the visual impact of the new dwelling and should incorporate hedging and planting as boundary features rather than walling and fencing. Reason: to protect the character and appearance of the area. 7. All planting, seeding or turfing comprised in the approved details of landscaping must be carried out in the first planting and seeding seasons following the completion of the development or the occupation of the dwelling, whichever is the sooner. Any trees or plants which within a period of five years from the completion of the development die, are removed, or become seriously damaged or diseased must be replaced in the next planting season with others of a similar size and species. Reason: The landscaping of the site is an integral part of the scheme and must be implemented as approved. 8. Once constructed, if the dwelling is no longer required or occupied by persons engaged in agriculture, as required by condition 5 above, it must be demolished and the ground returned to part of the surrounding fields. Reason: an exception to the general presumption against development is being made on the basis of agricultural need and should that need no longer be present, there is no justification for the dwelling and it should be removed. This approval relates to the drawings all received on 25th September, 2019. Date of Issue: 19th November 2019 Director of Planning and Building Control
