Statutory Consultation - Minor On-Street Parking Proposals - Various Locations - TRO 2013 Amendment 25
Minutes:
Members gave consideration to the objections to the minor on-street parking proposals within The Kent County Council (Various Roads in the District of Sevenoaks) (Prohibition and Restriction of Waiting and Loading and Unloading and On-Street Parking Places)(Amendment 25) Order 2018 received during the statutory consultation.
Hartley – Wellfield and Hoselands View
County Cllr. Brazier was the local member and had been pursuing this on behalf of the Parish Council and was glad the report mentioned the bus service as this was the principle rationale for the scheme. He had visited the area that day at 11am and there had been very few parked vehicles except for at the junction with plenty of parking within 50m of the dental surgery and no reason to believe parking during the rest of the working day would be any different. If buses could not get down the road the sheltered accommodation warden had to come and pick some elderly residents up as they were unable to walk the distance. When cars were parked the visibility was poor. He understood the surgery’s point but today he had seen seven vacant parking spaces in the forecourt of the surgery and this worthwhile scheme would save elderly people being put to inconvenience.
Swanley – St Marys Road
County Cllr. Horwood said he had no objection as it was clear from the comments that there was plenty of parking and this would help.
Westerham – Oak Road
There were no comments.
Leigh – Crandalls and The Green
With reference to Leigh – Crandalls and The Green which was submitted for information, County Cllr. Lake stated that the Parish Council was pleased to see the new double yellow line restrictions but believed it differed to what they had thought had been agreed, namely lines opposite Orchard House in the High Street and the dangerous bend to the left of Brook House.
The Parking Engineer advised that due to a funding issue, the High Street and Hildenborough Road restrictions would be added to the next amendment, and would be addressed in due course.
Resolved: That the following decisions be endorsed
a) the results of the statutory consultation regarding minor on-street parking proposals within the Kent County Council (Various Roads in the District of Sevenoaks) (Prohibition and Restriction of Waiting and Loading and Unloading and On-Street Parking Places) (Amendment 25) Order 2018 (known as “TRO 2013 Amendment 25”, be noted;
b) the relevant objections received to the parking proposals for Hartley – Wellfield and Hoselands View, Swanley – St Marys Road and Westerham – Oak Road be set aside;
c) TRO 2013 Amendment 25 be made and the parking proposals therein be implemented as drawn; and the objectors notified of the decision.
