Decision details

That the Local Committee [Elmbridge] agreed:

(i)        The county council’s intention to introduce the proposals within this report and in Annex 1 are formally advertised, and subject to statutory consultation (as appropriate);

(ii)        To add Fir Close, Walton on Thames to the list of roads to be included in the informal consultations on potential new resident permit schemes as set out in paragraph 2.4 of the report;

(iii)        That if objections are received the Parking Strategy and Implementation Team Manager is authorised to try and resolve them;

(iv)        That if any objections cannot be resolved, the Parking Strategy and Implementation Team Manager, in consultation with the Chairman/Vice Chairman of this committee and the county councillor for the division, decides whether or not they should be acceded to and therefore whether the order should be made, with or without modifications.

Reasons: Changes to the highway network, the built environment and society mean that parking behaviour changes and consequently it is necessary for a Highway Authority to carry out regular reviews of waiting and parking restrictions on the highway network.
