The Corporate Director – Business and
Environmental Services (BES) and the BES Executive Members noted
the outcome of the updated review into parking permit prices. In
particular the revised figures that simplify the charging structure
and updated analysis of the legal aspects of the proposal having
regard to current legislation, case law and statutory
guidance.
Their decision was to proceed with the recommended increase to the
charges for residential permits in line with the revised figures
set out in Appendix 2 subject to the following additional
information.
The Corporate Director and the Executive Members also considered
whether the provision of season tickets in Harrogate should
continue as this appeared to be counter productive to the Scheme.
It was decided that the provision of season tickets is assessed to
fully understand their use and any implications should they be
removed from the permit scheme.
