The Executive Member considered a report which asked him to approve changes to the parking layout on Monkgate.

Officers reported that they endorsed calls from Councillor Looker to revisit parking zones in Monkgate and the Groves and comments made by Paul Bushnell about double parking. This particular issue had not been brought to their attention before. They also stated that they had to balance the use of the road by various users. They also informed the Executive Member that a report into a Parking Review at a city wide level which would be considered at the next Executive meeting, would look into various options for residents parking across the city.
