2.  That, subject to there being no objections received following statutory advertisement, the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) be authorised to confirm the Order(s) as advertised.  Any unresolved objections will be referred to a future meeting of the Traffic & Parking Working Party and Cabinet Committee for consideration.
