The Chief Executive has determined that the Updates to Parking Standards for New Developments approved by Cabinet on 21 April 2026 shall cease to be applied by the Council with immediate effect.

The Chief Executive has further determined that:

• The 2026 updates to the Council’s 2022 Parking Standards, which were approved on 21 April 2026, will not be applied.
• The Council will undertake a further review in light of late submissions received before any future updates are considered and implemented.
• Any future implementation of revised parking standards will require a further formal decision of the Council by Cabinet.
• Pending completion of that review process, the Council will continue to apply the Parking Standards adopted in October 2022.

There are no direct financial commitments arising from this decision.
