Planning Justification Statement
I use the Isle of Man on a regular basis and have done so for a number of years.
4 Years ago I purchased a parcel of land in good faith, believing it to be non-agricultural. I previously applied for permission for ¼ of the field to become recreational. I am now re-applying for less area to be made recreational for my own personal use. I wish to continue utilising the Isle of Man on a regular basis whilst continuing my involvement in the TT & Manx GP as a marshal.
Since I have been the owner of the land I have been trying to support the local wildlife, I have a number of bird boxes and this season almost a third have been in use. I intend to reinstate the hedges around the field in the hope this will further enhance the wildlife.
The remaining Part of the field will be left as agricultural and horticultural, I have planted fruit trees and cultivated a small vegetable plot. I will erecting stock proof fencing around the land with the Intention of there being livestock on the land.
I will also be prepared to erect or plant appropriate screens if this is required.
