The Cabinet Committee received a report of the Corporate Director for Place which appraised Members of the receipt of a petition signed by 320 residents of the roads north of Southend East Railway Station requesting parking controls to deter all day parking by commuters. Having considered the views of the Traffic & Parking Working Party it was:
Resolved:
1. That the petition be noted and the residents be thanked for taking the time to compile the petition.
2. That, in accordance with the agreed policy regarding parking management schemes, Ward Councillors be requested to undertake an informal consultation with residents of the wider area affected, including the area south of the railway, the results of which shall be reported back to the Traffic & Parking Working Party and Cabinet Committee for consideration.
