Minutes:

The Head of Direct Services submitted a report (previously circulated, now appended). Councillor Colin Cook presented the report to the City Executive Board.

 

Councillor Gotch addressed the meeting and expressed concern about the effect of displacement parking in various areas of the City. He suggested that this report should be deferred pending a monitoring exercise into the effect of displacement parking. City Executive Board noted his comments.

 

City Executive Board observed that it had not wished to charge for parking at parks; however there would additional pressure on budgets if it did not do so.

 

Resolved:-

 

(1) To continue with charging at the existing sites and review tariffs during the normal off street parking process;

 

(2) To note the ongoing maintenance issues and that provision for this will be made in the forthcoming budget process.
