Condition Details / Information Notes
The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 makes no provisions for operational development as part of the prior approval process. The proposed block plan indicates two off road parking spaces and therefore implies the demolition of the wall and excavation of the fore garden to create an accessible parking area level with the adjacent highway. As such operational development cannot be secured via the prior approval process, the application has to be considered on the basis that there is no off road parking proposed. As a 6 bedroom dwelling would require 4 off road parking spaces, the proposal falls significantly short of the level of off road parking required, even allowing for the availability of other transport choices as a consequence of its location within the settlement boundary of Malvern. The proposal does not demonstrate that there would not be adverse transport impacts arising from the proposal, such as contributing to on-street parking pressure, or that a safe access could be achieved for all highway users. Accordingly, the proposal would be contrary to Policy SWDP 4 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and Paragraph 4.2 of the Worcestershire County Council Streetscape Design Guide.
