Another point relating to the previous queestions relating to my 2 flat application is this:

Can i offer a condition that my tenants wont require parking spaces? Thus alleviating any parking problems/ questions that come up?

If I answer by saying "dream on" would that be a sufficient answer.

When you advertise some properties, it either comes with a parking space or not.

you advertise, flat for sale / rent, with no off road parking.

"Is off road parking included with this flat" they ask -- you say -- "no".

Simples, --- squeak.

Parking is very intriguing.

A development near me of 5 low cost houses had objections with respect to traffic movements due to the parking provided in the developlement.

A neighbour objected to the traffic movements safety and so the developer revised his plan to no parking because they were low cost housing and wouldn't have cars!

Plans approved.

And what do we find? 2 cars per house cluttering up the road access!!!!!

Wonkers!

Precedents exist for there being no right to Parking Permits in the planning permission, so you could offer that.

Camden play this game, I think.

I'll stay off the 00s of unused parking spaces underneath Camden Council blocks, which are just sealed off :-).

If within walking distance of good public transport, maybe.

But no parking is often a cause for rejection of a plan, these days.

'Car free' developments only work when there's good public transport and local shopping etc... ie, in city centres.

If there's no space for off street parking and the road is already 'well stocked' with parked cars then, unfortunately this is going to be issue.

Now you can take the attitude and enevitable end result of Tipper's situation.

Or you can accept that the property, in it's location, isn't suitable for a simple conversion.
