Appendix 1 – Proposals where objections are recommended to be upheld

 

1.            Site 1 High Street, Lewes (Councillor Johnny Denis)

1.1         The proposal at this location is to replace the current disabled persons' badge holders parking place at any time with a disabled persons' badge holders parking place 9am-6pm, max stay 3hrs, no return within 1h bay.

1.2         Three objections have been received. Two objections, from the Lewes Area Access Group and a resident, are on the grounds that the bays should not have a maximum stay restriction. One objection is on the grounds that parking is in high demand and the proposal will reduce available spaces.

1.3         The proposal follows a request to provide a greater vehicle turnover for blue badge holder visitor parking to nearby amenities.

1.4         Having considered all the objections, officers are satisfied that there are sufficient grounds to withdraw the proposal.

1.5         At the time of writing, Councillor Denis has confirmed his support for the proposal but requested the bays should be consistent with other bays which stand at 4 hours.

1.6         Recommendation: To uphold the objections and withdraw the proposal
