Minutes:
A report was submitted to the Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning setting out proposals relating to changes to Warwick District CPE Variation 13 - Leamington L6 Residents' Parking Zone.
The Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning, Councillor Matecki welcome public speakers, Nigel Shanahan, founder and Catherine Callicott, general manager from 1 Mill Street.
Nigel Shanahan addressed the Portfolio Holder stating their support of the report and expressed his relief that common sense has prevailed. He highlighted the 150 plus businesses within the group that form a community of people connecting and emphasized the risks that parking restrictions posed to these businesses, which would have hampered economic development, social impact, and the sense of community. Nigel noted that a small group lobbying for these restrictions could have negatively impacted business, and he sees this decision as a positive move for Leamington Spa.
The Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning requested a recess to discuss with officers. After a 3 minutes recess, Cllr Matecki addressed the meeting, outlining his concerns with the original consultation and report. He noted that there was not a lot of support for the scheme, include residents. He clarified the changes reflected within the current report and outlined his decision. The Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning approved the installation of double yellow lines on Clinton Street and requested that part two of the decision be withdrawn rather than deferred. The withdrawn portion of the scheme may be considered and potentially redesigned at such a point that business parking permits are a viable option
