Landscaping scheme
Prior to the commencement of development a scheme of landscaping that specifically relates to screen planting along the western boundary of the application site with adjoining property Fo Carrick must be submitted to and agreed by the Planning Authority. Such planting should serve to reinforce the boundary between existing and proposed properties as well as aiding to limit the impact of the proposed development on the residential amenity of those existing properties. Thereafter, all planting comprised in the agreed scheme must be carried out in the first planting and seeding seasons following the completion of the development or the occupation of the dwellings, 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.
