A representative of the Assistant Director – Legal & Democratic Governance submitted a report on behalf of the Director of Place Management (copies of which had been circulated) containing a desktop study which detailed the existing parking conditions following the receipt of a petition requesting the introduction of a residents permit parking scheme on Vernon Street, Hazel Grove.
The following comments were made/ issues raised:-
· Members queried the value for money of the scheme and noted that it was unusual for a parking scheme to be introduced on a street with only four residential properties;
· Members also queried the cost of the consultation, noting that it was more expensive compared to previous schemes;
· Members noted details of future developments on Vernon Street and considered that there might be a need for a parking scheme in the future. In such circumstances, residents were encouraged to resubmit a further application for a parking permits scheme.
RESOLVED – That the report be noted.

A representative of the Assistant Director – Legal & Democratic Governance (Monitoring Officer) submitted a report of the Director of Place Management (copies of which had been circulated) which contained a desktop study detailing the existing parking conditions following the receipt of a petition requesting the introduction of a residents permit parking scheme on Vernon Street, Hazel Grove.
It was commented that due to ward boundary changes, none of the sitting councillors in the Hazel Grove ward would represent that location following the forthcoming local elections and it would therefore be fairer to defer consideration of the report until after the election.
RESOLVED – That consideration of this item be deferred to the next meeting of the Area Committee.
