Decision details

The development does not make adequate provision for the parking of vehicles within the site and will therefore be likely to encourage short-term parking on the highway, with consequent risk of additional danger to all users of the road and interference with the free flow of traffic. This is contrary to the provisions of Policy DMO6 of the North Devon and
Torridge Local Plan, adopted October 2018.
No confirmation has been provided that the occupiers of the three flats will be eligible for permits to park all year round within the existing Croyde village public car park. In addition, if such eligibility is secured, the effective loss of these spaces to the general public increases pressure for on-street parking on the approach or within the village of Croyde. The proposal is therefore contrary to the provisions of Policy DMO6 of the North Devon and Torridge Local Plan, adopted October 2018.
