Council sourceApplication for a Lawful Development Certificate seeking formal confirmation of non-compliance of agricultural occupancy condition relating to the property. The dwelling's original planning approval ref 2/97/0858/ (Dated January 1998) has the following occupancy attached to it: Condition 3: The occupation of the dwelling shall be limited to a person solely or mainly working, or last working in the locality in agriculture or in forestry or a widower of such a person and to any resident dependants. This certificate of lawfulness application therefore seeks formal confirmation that the existing dwelling has been occupied by non-agricultural owners across the last 10+ years and therefore the condition is no longer enforceable
