Minor Alterations to the London Plan - Housing Standards and Parking Standards
On 11 May 2015, the Mayor of London published a six weeks public consultation on two sets of Minor Alterations to the London Plan.
Namely, on Housing Standards and on Parking Standards with a view to bring the London Plan in line with national housing standards (and car parking policy) such as the 'optional' arrangements in relation to Lifetime Homes.
Therefore, of particular note, are the proposals in relation to 90 per cent of new housing built to meet Building Regulation requirements for "accessible and adaptable dwellings" and 10 per cent Building Regulations "wheelchair user dwellings". The deadline for response is 22 June 2015.
