Summary of objection for proposed Disabled Parking Bay

Proposed disabled parking bay at, High Street, Scalby
Summary of comments	Officer comments
Resident of Low Lane, Scalby Transcript of above submitted by respondent Why do you think this is necessary? on an unmarked road (both sides), ample parking for many cars. The only time there is slight congestion being Sunday worshipers to the Church. One of the nicest parts of Scalby (High Street) not with yellow lines. To include a disabled box and sign will visually be detrimental to the ambiance of the village. A waste of money! Additional comments submitted by respondent The proposed (Box & Sign) are to be placed in a conservation area, at present the only signs on the road being SLOW (in white) bright yellow box etc will be detrimental and visually unattractive. As well as the High Street, (parking for 30-35 cars) the adjacent Low Street offers unrestricted parking (on both sides) for up to 20 cars. The cut through from High Street to Low Street accommodates 5 car spaces. Also there is a large car park at the bottom of Church Hill, especially for the Church which can be accessed on a daily basis. As a resident of Low Street for the past 40 years, I have never witnessed difficulty for parking for either abled bodied or disabled persons. Residents of High Street have off street parking. I would suggest that IF a disabled box & sign are needed that they be confined to the area outside The Plough / Naggs head area, (an area already that has yellow lines and parking areas), perhaps just outside the local public toilets (volunteer run), which would help disabled persons access both public houses, the beauty salon, toilet, cafe and local newsagents.	An application was received by NYC from St. Laurence’s Church/Parish Council to assist blue badge holders visiting the church. Disabled parking bay road markings are white. The car park at the bottom of Church Hill has no suitable access for disabled church goers due to the church being located at the top of the hill. At the proposed DPB location, footway access to the church is on a level gradient. No application has been received for the location described. This application is primarily to serve church goers.
