1.1 The proposal at this location is to install a new disabled persons' badge holders parking place bay 8am-8pm, max stay 3hrs, no return within 1h, replacing a section of the permit holders Mon-Sat 8am-8pm.
1.2 Four objections have been received, one from the Lewes Area Access Group on the grounds that the bay should not have a maximum stay restriction and three from residents 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 blue badge holder parking for visitors to nearby amenities including the dental practice nearby.
1.4 Having considered the objections, officers are satisfied that there are sufficient grounds to modify the proposal to remove the maximum stay. It is recognised that the proposal will reduce available parking for permit holders by one space, but this will allow blue badge holders to access the local shops and amenities., Outside of the operational hours, which are 8am to 8pm, the bay will be available for all users to park in it.
