Councillor Castle suggested that a way to prevent in appropriate parking would to be to introduce a permit parking zone at the site, although some concern was raised with regard to the lack of free parking in the area and therefore a suggestion of voucher parking was felt may be more appropriate for the site.

Members discussed the need to retain some free parking within the area in light of the number of restaurants, reference was made to potential time limit parking although some concern was raised with regard to enforcement.

Councillor Waters-Bunn commented that there was a need to be mindful of the terrace houses located within the site who have been able to park without restriction, it was suggested that this could be controlled by implementing a limited 4 hours between the hours of 8-6 and therefore residents could park for free after 6.

Councillor T Wright commented that there was a need to obtain evidence of ownership of those vehicles who had been parked for a period of time and also pointed out the need for clarity around ownership of the site he therefore suggested that contact be made with the County council with regard to this matter to enable restrictions to be put in place.
