Only parking, Southend was designed before the era of the Motor Car so in order to provide quality of like style the Council must provide suitable parking for Residents. The technology exists to provide small underground carparks, perhaps even on a street by street basis if it can be done cheaply enough.

How is 'parking stress' to be defined?

What is definition of 'over concentration'?

Could the Character Study help in answering two questions above?

Most conversions are unlikely to meet the Lifetime Homes Standard. Is it advisable for the DM DPD to identify which elements are essential?

Issue DM3: Question 15
There could be an increase in flood risk if intensification of existing residential sites and areas in flood zones is considered. It could also place further burden on the emergency services by placing more people at risk. We therefore feel that flood risk should be considered in the list under part 1 of the suggested option.

No mention page 24 of Flats into Flats, this will not matter if Homes for Life provides adequate standards of space internally. We have been caught out with this before. Flats into flats should be a rare exception.
