Liverpool Local Environmental Plan 2008

The objectives of this clause for the control of building frontage to streets are as follows—

to ensure that, visually, buildings have an appropriate overall horizontal proportion compared to their vertical proportions,

to ensure that vehicular access is reasonably spaced and separated along roads and lanes,

to provide appropriate dimensions for the design of car parking levels,

to encourage larger development of commercial office, business, residential and mixed use buildings provided for under this Plan.

Development consent must not be granted to development for the purposes of any of the following buildings, unless the site on which the buildings is to be erected has at least one street frontage to a public street (excluding service lanes) of at least 24 metres—

any building on land in Zone E2 Commercial Centre or MU1 Mixed Use, or

any building of more than 2 storeys on land in Zone R4 High Density Residential or E1 Local Centre, or

any residential flat building.

This clause does not apply in respect of development on land identified as “Area 7” or “Area 8” on the Floor Space Ratio Map.
