Carport that must not be a carport

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, the carport was rejected in our building application because it violates the development plan. We then removed it from our application for the time being so that we could start building the house.

Our house has a side entrance - right in front of the front door is also the parking space for the car. Do you have any ideas how to create a "carport" without it actually being a carport? :) For example, could you make the canopy over the front door large enough so that a car "happens" to fit underneath?

If anyone has any ideas - please share them. Maybe someone has already had a similar problem.

Best regards,
Oliver

Normally, the building code specifies how far a house canopy may protrude in order to be exempt from approval. Nevertheless, it must remain within the building envelope AND comply with the setback distances. The whole thing could also be declared as a terrace and a terrace roof constructed, and later subjected to a change of use, whereby the building code is again decisive for the change of use. In any case, all of this should be planned accordingly in advance when positioning the house; otherwise, you will have problems later if the overall design does not fit "into the frame" (building envelope, setback). You can't move the house one meter to the left later on...

How does it violate the development plan?

How does he violate the development plan?

And what is the wording in the development plan regarding the parking space/garage?

And a site plan with the house marked would also be necessary to answer the question.

How does it violate the development plan?

The carport must be 3 meters away from traffic areas.

The development plan states:

Throughout the entire planning area, garages must maintain a distance of at least 3.00 meters from road traffic areas.

Simplified drawing:

Street; 3 meters space to house (our property already); House

We had planned our carport with 3 meters space to the house.

While maintaining the relative positions of the house ./. carport, this would mean: having to move the house away from the street by a total of 6 meters (provided the building envelope allowed this). I would probably forgo the parking space roof.
