The Cabinet has considered an overview of the proposed Greater Manchester Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy and has:-
(1) Endorsed and approved the Greater Manchester Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Charging Strategy and requested that officers work with TfGM and the schemes’ commercial partners to identify more sites in Stockport whilst acknowledging there was a financial impact if more spaces in Council owned carparks were changed to electric vehicle charging bays.
(2) Requested that the Corporate Director (Place) support the introduction of appropriate regulations to discourage people overstaying their time in these charging bays and also to ensure an appropriate balance of general parking provision is maintained.
