Tables b1 & b2 Notes
1. The requirement for office uses within the range given in the tables will be
dependent upon the proposed intensity of use (a call centre for example
requiring the higher provision) and the accessibility of the site.
2. Office redevelopments, extensions and conversions will have the same
requirements as for new build, subject only to note 3 below.
3. For premises up to a maximum of 200m2 gross floor area an increase of
20% will be permitted without the need for additional parking. This
allowance can only be made once and any parking displaced must be
relocated.
4. Outside of Zone 1 and 2, all new office developments will need to provide a
service bay.
5. Consideration may be given to a relaxation of the parking requirements in
shopping areas for the change of use at ground floor level of premises from
Use Class A1 (shops) to Use Class A2 (Financial & Professional Services).
