Amend Section 14.7.3 Internal Storage as follows:

Internal Storage

Internal storage within an apartment unit shall be provided in accordance with the Sustainable Urban Housing Design Standards for New Apartments as set out in Appendix 1 and Section 3.30 to 3.34.

Storage should be additional to kitchen presses and bedroom furniture. ¨Hot press/boiler space will not count as general storage.¨ No individual storage room should exceed 3.5 sq. m. Apartment schemes should provide storage for bulky items outside individual units (i.e. at ground or basement level). Secure, ground floor storage space allocated to individual apartments and located close to the entrance to the apartment block or building should be provided. This form of storage may be used for equipment such as, for example, bicycles or bicycle equipment, children's outdoor toys or buggies. This form of storage does not satisfy bicycle parking requirements for the apartment scheme.
