The proposals seek to change the use of the above-mentioned property from a single dwelling (Class C3) to a 4-bed HMO (Class C4). The Highway Authority would not wish to raise any in-principle objections to the proposed development.

The property is not benefitted with any off-street parking provision and this is to remain the case following the proposed development. As such, any impacts on on-street parking will have been previously established by the existing use.

The parking demand associated with the property as existing would be 3x spaces. When considering the parking demand associated with the property as proposed, the parking demand would reduce to 2x spaces (1x space per 2x bedrooms). Therefore the parking impacts are considered neutral and for this reason, the LHA would not raise any in-principle objections to the proposed development.

The property does lie within a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) which is in operation between 10am and 11am, Monday to Friday. It should be noted by the applicant that the property would be excluded from obtaining parking permits and visitor tickets for use within the CPZ if the change in use is implemented. I would refer the applicant to the accompanying 'Parking Exclusion' letter which confirms this.

Secure and covered cycle storage should be provided in accordance with the levels and standards as detailed within section 8 of the SPD.

Planning conditions:
CYCLE PROVISION
The building shall not be occupied until space has been laid out within the site in accordance with details previously submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority for a minimum of 2x bicycles to be securely parked. The secure area for storing bicycles shown on the approved plan shall remain available for its intended purpose and shall not be used for any other purpose without the prior consent of the Local Planning Authority.

Reason:
In order to promote cycling as an alternative to the use of private cars in accordance with Policy DEV29 of the Plymouth and South West Devon JLP 2019.

INFORMATIVE: RESIDENT PARKING PERMIT SCHEME
The applicant should be made aware that the property lies within a resident parking scheme therefore in accordance with Council policy the development will be excluded from obtaining permits and purchasing visitor tickets for use within the scheme.


The proposed development has been considered in accordance with the Councils current Development Plan Policies and having regard for the National Planning Policy Framework.
