Article summary

Planning analysis: In Khodari v RBKC, the Court of Appeal considered the powers under which parking permit restrictions could be applied in the context of the grant of planning permission. It concluded that although section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (TCPA 1990) could not be used for these purposes, permit requirements made 'in connection with the land' fell within section 16 of the Greater London Council (General Powers) Act 1974 (GLC(GP)A 1974).
