To consider the introduction of a Traffic
Regulation Order that will amend the area of the Wellington
Business Park off-street car park to allow the private lease of six
car parking spaces.
i. That the formal objection received during the statutory consultation process and the corresponding Officer comments are noted.
ii. That the position regarding local ward Members comments received during the informal consultation process was noted.
iii. That the Borough Solicitor be authorised to make the Traffic Regulation Order in relation to the proposals as shown on the Plan in Annex A of the Director: Place, Planning and Regenerations report.
1. The Wellington Business Car Park is underutilised, and the Council has a duty to maximise the usage of its property assets.
2. The proposal enables the re-development of 188 Dukes Ride, Crowthorne to provide 3 residential units on a brownfield site which would not be possible otherwise (all other potential alternatives for parking provision for the proposed development were exhausted with the Council’s Planning Department).
3. The consideration agreed for leasing the 6 car parking spaces provides the Council with a significant windfall payment which will be used to fund other Council capital projects.
Not to proceed with the private lease of the six spaces. This would result in the car park continuing to operate as it does at present.
