Policy HC11 - Space about dwellings and internal space standards
St Philips supports the need to ensure improved housing standards are delivered by requiring developments to meet Nationally Described Space Standards [NDSS]. As such, St Philips support the principle of the direction of travel for draft Policy HC11.
St Philips would advise the Council that, should the Council wish to proceed with a policy approach that requires the delivery of dwellings to the NDSS.

Policy HC12 - Parking Standards
Largely supportive of the policy. However, St Philips disagrees with the Council’s proposed direction of travel for residential dwellings proposed as a part of draft Policy
HC12. In particular, St Philips considers that the Council should acknowledge the diversity of different charging speeds depending on the type of vehicle and type of charge point. St Philips considers that a planning policy that requires the provision of underground cabling and/or ducting for an EVCP is in place would allow for the proportional expansion of the charging network
