PETITION – LIMES ROAD EGHAM

A petition had just been received from residents of Lime Road and surrounding areas in Egham, in response to the Surrey County Council consultation about Controlled Parking Zones. It was agreed that the petition would be considered at the next Committee on 24 February, when a report on the Controlled Parking Zones consultation would be presented.

Some members commented that they had been contacted by residents who felt that there had been insufficient provision for those without computer access to submit their views, and that some residents were very opposed to the introduction of Controlled Parking Zones in their streets.
