Report by Deputy Director for Environment & Economy (Commercial) (CMDE7).

 

The report presents objections received in the course of a statutory consultation on proposals to introduce additional waiting restrictions and other changes at various locations in Blackbird Leys in Oxford.  The redevelopment of the Leys Pool and Leisure Centre has required new parking restrictions to facilitate traffic movements in the area and mitigate the impact of additional traffic in the vicinity of the development. At the same time the opportunity has been taken to address a number of other longstanding requests for simple parking controls in the area.

 

The Cabinet Member for the Environment is RECOMMENDED to approveimplementation of the advertised proposal, with the exception of those in Haldane Road.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Decision:

Approved

Minutes:

The Cabinet Member for Environment considered (CMDE7) objections received to a statutory consultation on proposals to introduce additional waiting restrictions and other changes at various locations in Blackbird Leys required largely due to the redevelopment of the Leys pool and leisure centre while at the same time the opportunity had been taken to address a number of longstanding requests for simple parking controls in the area.

 

Mr Tole confirmed that it had become clear that the proposals for Haldane Road did not address local issues and therefore officers were recommending that that element be looked at again. Councillor Curran endorsed that.

 

The Cabinet Member accepted the reasons for deferral of proposals for Haldane Road and having regard to the arguments and options in the documentation before him and the further considerations set out above confirmed his decision as follows:

 

to approve implementation of the advertised proposals with the exception of those for Haldane Road.
