Report by Deputy Director for Environment & Economy (Commercial) (CMDE6).

 

The report considers objections received as a result of a formal consultation on proposals to introduce new Disabled Persons’ Parking Places (DPPP) at various locations in Oxford City and replacement of a permit bay with double yellow lines in Windmill Road, Headington to allow vehicular access to off-street parking.  The report also considers a request received from a resident of Windmill Road seeking removal of an existing permit holders bay which is compromising a recently-constructed off-street parking space.

 

The Cabinet Member for Environment is RECOMMENDED to

 

(a)       approve implementation of the proposed new DPPP in Malford Road, and the removal of the permit bay in Windmill Road as advertised;

 

(b)       defer implementation of the bay in Quarry High street to allow further consultation in order to reach a compromise solution.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Approve the proposed new DPPS in Malford Road but defer implementation pending the outcome of a formal complaint from a local resident.

 

Retain the permit bay on Windmill Road and review its status as part of the future Access to Headington consultation.

 

Approved.

The Cabinet Member for Environment considered (CMDE6) objections received to a formal consultation on proposals to introduce new disabled persons parking places at various locations in Oxford City, replacement of a permit bay with double yellow lines in Windmill Road, Headington and a request to remove an existing permit holders bay which was compromising a recently constructed off-street parking space.

 

Richard Ford objected to the proposals in Windmill Road which would seriously compromise the viability of his business which required manual movement of large items of furniture with vehicles often requiring more space than one shop frontage.  He confirmed he would have objected strongly to the planning application had he known it would mean the loss of a parking space.

 

Having regard to the arguments and options set out in the report and the representations made to him the Cabinet Member for Environment confirmed his decision as follows:

 

(a)          approve the proposed new DPPS in Malford Road but defer implementation pending the outcome of a formal complaint from a local resident;

 

(b)          retain the permit bay on Windmill Road and review its status as part of the future Access to Headington consultation.

 

(c)          defer implementation of the bay in Quarry High street to allow further consultation in order to reach a compromise solution.
