Parking Standards SPD

Representation ID: 71126

Received: 29/03/2018

Respondent: mrs sarah brooke-taylor

Representation Summary:

Responding to "How much parking?", 2.1, table 1.

Objection. Too few parking spaces suggested under "new dwellings".

A one bed dwelling can accommodate up to two adults, both of whom may have a vehicle.
A two bed dwelling could accommodate three or four adults (for example, parents with adult child or two couples), all of whom may have a vehicle.
A three bed dwelling could accommodate anything up to six adults (parents with two adult children each living at home with their respective partners for example), all of whom may have a vehicle.

I would suggest two spaces for both a one and two bed dwelling and at least three spaces for a three bed dwelling. I agreed that dwellings with four or more bedrooms should require a minimum of one space per bedroom.
