(b)  Approve the amended proposals from proposed ‘Residents permit holders parking only’ (Monday to Saturday, 8am – 6pm) areas, to instead ‘Shared-use parking bays (Mon to Sat 9am-6pm Permit Holders or 2 hours, no return within 1 hour)’ on Foscote Rise, Lodge Close, and Valley Road.

The Chair referred to a written statement that objected to the short-term parking in Fuscote Rise. Officers stated that home businesses and parents dropping children off were two of the reasons for proposing short-term parking arrangements.

The Chair noted that the plans for double yellow lines in the original consultation had been removed.

Officers noted that the Horton Hospital had introduced ANPR recently.

The Chair noted the work and support of the local County Councillor for this scheme.

The Chair thanked officers and agreed to the recommendations in the report.
