Exmouth Residents' Parking Review pdf icon PDF 3 MB

Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste (HIW/20/56), attached.

 

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Committee received the Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste (HIW/20/56) which considered the results of the consultation on the introduction of residents’ parking in areas of Exmouth, together with the supplementary plans as presented.

 

The consultation took place from 4 – 25 October 2019 and the results of the responses were set out in Appendices II, III and IV of the Report.

 

The Report proposed that restrictions were progressed in the zones where the majority of responses were in favour of a scheme, with the only exception being the Town Centre area (EX6) where there was a very low response rate of 6.2%.  Those that responded had mixed views, but slightly more were opposed to a scheme and therefore it was proposed that restrictions were not progressed in this area.

 

Following discussions with local Members it was proposed that the residents’ parking scheme should apply from 8am to 8pm on all days to maximise the benefits of a scheme at times it could be enforced.

 

The Report also set out the Times of operation, the Proposed Zones, Proposed Restrictions, Permit Allocations and Next steps.

 

It was MOVED by Councillor Trail, SECONDED by Councillor Scott and

 

RESOLVED 

 

(a)   that the results of the consultation be noted;

 

(b)   that approval be given to advertise the Traffic Regulation Orders for the additional restrictions detailed in the Report and shown on the supplementary plans and that, if no objections are received, the Orders be made and sealed;

 

(c)   that the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste be given delegated powers, in consultation with the Committee Chair and the local County Councillors, to make minor amendments to the scheme details prior to the statutory consultation; and

 

(d)   that those areas that have not been progressed following the consultation process will not normally be considered again for residents’ parking for three years and only then if resources allow.

Removal of Visibility Lines at Rewe Pound, Rewe pdf icon PDF 2 MB

Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste (HIW/20/57), attached.

 

Minutes:

The Committee received the Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste (HIW/20/57) on the removal of visibility lines adjacent to and east of the A396 at Rewe Pound, Rewe.

 

Following Local Government re-organisation in 1974, the Council inherited as successor Highway Authority various building, improvement and visibility lines prescribed by the former Highway Authorities, most of which were prescribed in the 1920s and 1930s.  

 

All building and improvement lines were protected by registration in the Register of Local Land Charges and were revealed in replies to searches made by solicitors acting for prospective land or property purchasers.

 

The Report proposed that the historic visibility lines in the Register of Local Land Charges summarised in the Appendix to the Report were now obsolete by virtue of the changes for road layout over the years, the powers contained in current planning legislation and that there was no prospect of the identified highway improvement being progressed. 

 

It was MOVED by Councillor Randall-Johnson, SECONDED by Councillor Hughes and

 

RESOLVED that the visibility lines at Rewe Pound, Rewe as prescribed in the Schedule attached at Appendix I to the Report be revoked and rescinded and removed from the Register of Local Land Charges.
