URGENT BUSINESS - CAR PARKING OBJECTION PDF 71 KB The Chief Executive consulted with the Leader and Cabinet Member with Responsibility for Parking to take the Urgent Business Decision set out below. The reason for the urgency in this case was that a decision was required to allow for any changes to be in place for 1 April 2014. The Chairman of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee was consulted and agreed to waive the five day call-in period in accordance with Overview and Scrutiny Procedure Rule 17(a):-
(1) In considering this issue Cabinet is conscious that the Council already supports the city centre through providing a clean and improving environment. (2) That Cabinet, having today received a programme of events from the Business Improvement District (BID), which was not available when the previous decision was made, has decided that free parking should be retained on public holidays to support the development of these events. (3) That Cabinet agree that for the purposes of the parking order this change does not represent a substantial change. Therefore, officers are requested to continue the process of implementing the overall decision previously made by Cabinet. (4) Cabinet extends an invitation to the Chamber and BID to discuss matters of mutual concern.
