In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Infrastructure determined to APPROVE a planning application by Langness Properties Limited, Ref 14/00796/B, for the extension to existing storage shed at Greenkeepers Store, Castletown Golf Links, Derbyhaven, Castletown, Isle of Man subject to compliance with the following condition(s):

1. 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) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.

1. The extension hereby approved shall be removed and the ground restored to its former condition in the event that it is no longer used or required for the approved purpose.

Reason: The extension has been approved to address the shortfall in storage and maintenance space and its subsequent retention would result in an unwarranted intrusion in the countryside.

1. Within one month of the completion of the extension or first use of the extension whichever is the sooner all machinery and equipment shall be stored in the building, under the Golf Buggy canopy or removed from site identified by the red line on 01 date stamped 4th July 2014.
