Rescode: Car Parking

Variation 413

Objective

To ensure that carparking is adequate for the needs of the residents.

Decision Guidelines

The reporting authority may give its consent to an application for a building permit for a single dwelling, which does not comply with regulation 413 of the Building Regulations 2006, if -

  1. the anticipated residents are likely to generate a lesser demand for carparking; or
  2. the provision of carparking on the allotment would reduce the on-street carparking by equal to or more than the number of carparking spaces that would be provided on the allotment; or
  3. the dimensions of the allotment provide insufficient width and/or depth to enable the provision of the required carparking on the allotment; or
  4. the location of existing development on the allotment provides insufficient width and/or depth to enable the provision of the required carparking on the allotment; or
  5. the availability of public transport and on-street parking would lessen the demand for carparking on the allotment; and
  6. the provision of carparking is consistent with any relevant local planning policy or parking precinct plan in the relevant planning scheme.
