The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. **Reason:** To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No 2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals. 2. This approval is granted on the basis that the large tree in the centre of the frontage is to be retained, as shown in the drawings. In order to ensure that this tree is protected from damage during the construction process, prior to the commencement of any works on site, the tree must be protected by the erection of a stout fence constructed beneath the dripline of the tree and retained thereafter for the duration of the construction works. If any works are proposed within this protected area, they must be undertaken by hand or otherwise in accordance with a method statement to have been approved by the Planning Authority, and such that the health of the tree is not threatened. During construction, no vehicles may be parked nor materials stored within the protected area. Prior to the construction of the driveway within the protected area, further details of the construction of the hard surfacing must be approved by the Planning Authority and must demonstrate that the new construction will not sever or compact the roots of the tree such that its health will be compromised. **Reason:** The tree adds to the amenities of the area and should be protected during construction works. **Note:** This approval relates to WL/14/1309/2, WL/14/1309/3 and WL/12/1234/6 all received on 21 March 2014 and WL/14/1309/1A, WL/14/1309/4A and WL/14/1309/5A all received on 1 May 2014. ## By Order of the Minister **N J Black** Chief Executive **Note 1:** A copy of the report of the appointed person is appended hereto. --- *Data sourced from the Isle of Man public planning register under the [Isle of Man Open Government Licence](https://www.gov.im/about-this-site/open-government-licence/).* *Canonical page: https://planningportal.im/a/34873-union-mills-brambley-cottage-replacement-dwelling/documents/1090106*
