East Sussex County Council Guidance on Parking at New Developments and implementation of "Mini Section 278 Agreements" for developer led or third party highway works

To seek Lead Member approval for the recently updated Parking Guidelines and Parking Calculator in light of recent Census data relating to car ownership; and to seek Lead Member approval to introduce an amended mechanism for how developer led highway works are agreed with the County Council. While Section 278 agreements, will remain the case for the majority of schemes, where the proposed highway works are of a low value and present minimal risk to the County Council’s highway asset, a new light touch process is proposed to be introduced in the form of Mini Section 278 agreements.
