This report presents a 17 signature petition requesting that City of York Council consults with residents on Aldreth Grove to introduce a Residents Priority Parking Scheme.

Additional documents:

Decision:

Resolved:           That Option 1 be approved i.e. to move to a formal consultation with Aldreth Grove (petition received) and also the surrounding streets (currently not signed a petition). This includes Cameron Grove, St. Clements Grove and Bishopthorpe Road (part).

 

 

Reason:              Although not common procedure when dealing with requests for new Residents Parking Schemes, due to the location and consequent concerns from nearby residents, currently not petitioned, it would be more practicable on this occasion to consult with both Aldreth Grove and the surrounding streets at the same time.

Minutes:

The Executive Member considered a report which outlined a response to a 17 signature petition, representing 54% of properties on Aldreth Grove, York, requesting that the Council consult with residents on introducing a Residents Priority Parking Scheme (ResPark).

 

Consideration was given to the following options:

 

Option 1:    To undertake consultation with a wider area including Aldreth Grove, Cameron Grove, St Clements Grove and Bishopthorpe Road (part).

 

Option 2:    To consult with Aldreth Grove residents only.

 

Option 3:    To consider the level of support is not sufficient at this time to warrant further consultation.

 

The Executive Member stated that he was mindful that to implement such a scheme in one street could move the problem elsewhere. 

 

Resolved:  That Option 1 be approved i.e. a formal consultation with Aldreth Grove (petition received) and also the surrounding streets (currently not signed a petition). This includes Cameron Grove, St. Clements Grove and Bishopthorpe Road (part).

 

Reason:     Although not common procedure when dealing with

requests for new Residents Parking Schemes, due to the location and consequent concerns from nearby residents, currently not petitioned, it would be more practicable on this occasion to consult with both Aldreth Grove and the surrounding streets at the same time.
