Sheltered Housing	1 space per 3 units.
Town centre and brownfield residential development	Typical residential standard may be relaxed in accordance with paragraph A.7.1 above.

2. would result in the preservation of a sensitive streetscape; or
3. is otherwise of benefit to the character of a Conservation Area.
4. is within a reasonable distance of an existing or proposed bus route and it can be demonstrated a reduced level of parking will not result in unacceptable on street parking in the locality.
