Purpose:

the informal consultation process are noted.
iii. The Borough Solicitor be authorised to bring the Disabled Parking Spaces Order into effect.
Reasons for the decision:
To continue the Councils policy of marking out disabled parking bays in residential
streets that are heavily parked and where disabled people may have trouble in finding a parking space close enough to where they live without experiencing real difficulty in getting from their car to their home.
Alternative options considered:
To not install the disabled bays would result in the applicants continuing to
experience difficulty in getting to and from their vehicle. To not remove un-needed
disabled parking bays would leave parking spaces unused that could relieve parking
pressures in the area.
