Decision details

Purpose of Report: To overturn, uphold or amend, as appropriate, the objections received to the advertised proposal to introduce a Residents Priority Parking Scheme to include Aldreth Grove, Cameron Grove, St Clements Grove, Norfolk Street and Bishopthorpe Road (part) to be known as R58.

The Executive Member is asked to consider the officers recommendation.

Resolved:      That the objections be overturned and the scheme be implemented as advertised- to introduce a 24 hour Community Residents Priority Parking area (to be known as R58) to include Aldreth Grove, Cameron Grove, St Clements Grove, Bishopthorpe Road (No’s 106 to 154) and Norfolk Street to have two dual zone bay to include R6 and R58.

Reason:      This is in line with a well established procedure when dealing with requests for new Residents Parking Schemes. From past experience if one street is left unrestricted, in the middle of a zone, residents generally tolerate the increase of parking within that street for a short time before seeking to become part of a residents parking zone, this is normally due to the increase of parking takingplace being the only unrestricted street in an area.
