Appendix A (garage conversions) to Planning and Design Guide Part E

This Appendix to the existing Planning and Design Guide SPD Part E sets out additional, more detailed guidance for garage conversions where planning permission is required. The main elements within the additional guidance are:

• Guidance on parking requirements if integral garages are converted, and this will only be routinely permitted where garages are less than 3m wide.
• Provision of some basic design criteria around acceptable window design, positioning and size and the materials to be used.
• Guidance on bin storage, driveways and landscaping.
