Covenant Management have offered to fund the introduction of parking restrictions and the report considers objections received as a result of a formal consultation.

 

The Cabinet Member for the Environment is RECOMMENDED to approvethe implementation of proposal as advertised.

 

 

 

 

 

Decision:

Agreed

Minutes:

Proposals had been drawn up in conjunction with Thames Valley Police, residents of Caldecott Close and representatives of Covenant Management Ltd (who manage the Caldecott Chase development) to introduce ‘no waiting at any time’ restrictions at the entrance to the Close in order to address concerns regarding a perceived danger caused by cars parking close to the junction of Caldecott Close and Blacknell Road. Covenant Management had also offered to fund the introduction of the restrictions.

 

The Cabinet Member for Environment considered a report (CMDE8) setting out objections received to a formal consultation on those proposals.

 

Responding to a question from the Cabinet Member regarding potential to scale down the restriction to just a restriction on the north side Mr Tole expressed some concern that lines on just one side could encourage more parking on the other side.

 

Therefore, having regard to the information set out in the report and the representations made to him at the meeting the Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed his decision as follows:

 

to approvethe implementation of proposal as advertised.
