5. Residents parking extension to ‘R65 Clifton Dale’
Resolved: To progress the advertised extended R65 resident’s priority parking scheme and limited waiting bay on Compton Street to implementation by amending the York Parking, Stopping and Waiting Order 2014.
Reason: This supports the CYC transport strategy and commitment to reduce traffic congestion by discouraging driving into the city centre.
Making this location into a ResPark area removes the ability for commuters to park whilst the limited waiting bay on Compton Street ensures that local businesses are not adversely affected maintaining short stay parking for customers.
This will also increase parking accessibility for local residents.
6. Review of Statutory Consultation for the removal House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO) Parking Permits
Resolved: To approve an amendment of the York Parking Stopping and Waiting Order 2014 to remove the Multiple Occupancy Permit and Discounted Multiple Occupancy Permit from the available permits within the residents parking scheme.
This will remove the permits from available permits, with all residents currently utilising the permit being moved to a household permit.
This will require a change to the online permit system, to allow for all households permit holders to apply for visitor permits, to ensure all residents of HMO’s are able to have visitors not just the first permit holder.
The amendment to the Order will not be able to made until the systems has been upgraded to allow more access to visitor permits.
Reason: The removal of the permit reduces the impact on the Residents Parking scheme from the increase in the properties that are Houses in Multiple Occupancy; if the Residents Parking scheme were to become oversubscribed it makes the scheme ineffective, as there would be too many vehicles for the available spaces.
