To consider a report of the Director of Place Management.
The report details a desk-top study of the parking availability on Greenvale Drive, Cheadle following a petition from the residents for a Resident Parking Scheme.
The Area Committee is recommended to note the contents of the desk-top study and acknowledge the view of Network Management; the purpose of a Resident Permit Parking Scheme is not to provide parking for resident’s additional vehicles or in situations where residents chose not to utilise their private garage facility for the purpose of parking their vehicle. Resident Permit Parking Schemes are inherently introduced to assist residents by making it easier to park nearer to their home, particularly in areas where off-street parking availability is minimal to none e.g. terraced residential streets without front gardens and that no further action be taken as the most of the residents have access to a garage which is located underneath each individual property, providing parking for at least 1 vehicle.
Should the Area Committee not wish to accede to the above recommendation or believe there is an immediate need for a parking scheme in the area then funding to the amount if £4k will have to be made available from the Cheadle West & Gatley Delegated Ward Budget to enable consultation and further investigation.
