Report of the Cabinet Member Development and Safety –TO FOLLOW  

 

Minutes:

The Cabinet Member Development and Safety presented the report.

 

He outlined that this formed the fourth part of the Cheltenham Parking Strategy, addressing the areas not covered by previous steps. The new parking orders included much of the content of the previous orders, but incorporated the 2017 Parking Strategy. He referred to the parking season ticket, which covered all Cheltenham car parks apart from Regent Arcade, and discussed the introduction of new waiting times. He reported that the car parks in Church Piece and Whitefriars would remain unchanged, following the public response demonstrating a clear public need for them to do so. He also discussed the removal of the Sandford Park Lido car park from the parking order while negotiations continued with the trust, as well as the Malvern Walk car park, consultations regarding which were yet to be completed.
