Minutes:

The Executive Member considered a report which asked him to acknowledge receipt of four petitions relating to Farrar Street (off Lawrence Street), Windmill Gates (off Windmill Lane), Alma Terrace (part)/Alma Grove (off Fulford Road) and Slingsby Grove (off Tadcaster Road) and determine what action was appropriate for each.

For each of the four areas, the Executive Member considered whether to:

·        note the petition but take no further action.

·        approve the initial consultation

·        add the street to the residents parking waiting list and carry out 2 stage consultation process with residents when it reaches the top of the waiting list, the results of which are reported back to the Executive Member for a decision on how to proceed.

He took into account two written representations received from Cllr Fenton and two residents of Slingsby Grove as well as the comments made under public participation by a local resident in relation to Slingsby Grove and by Councillor D’Agorne, Ward Member for Fishergate with regard to Alma Terrace and Alma Grove.

In response to a query which had been raised in relation to the Slingsby Road area, officers advised that the street plans, included as annexes to the report, were intended to show the general area of the petitions submitted and did not show designated streets however it was normal to include those businesses in the proposal which were accessed from the street in question. They confirmed that they had not investigated the area yet but would look at zone boundaries as part of the process to determine which properties should be included in the consultation.
