County Councillor Jackie Charlton Cabinet Member for a Greener Powys Decisions Taken 9 May 2023 Decisions Published 9 May 2023 Decisions Effective 17 May 2023 Consideration of Objections On street waiting and loading and parking modifications - Various streets, Newtown DECISION Reason for Decision That all the objections relating to Llanfair Road and School Lane are noted but overruled. Therefore the original proposal plans relating to AREA CODE PLAN CP185 within Appendix A to the report to be implemented in accordance with the Local Authorities’ Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations 1996. For health and safety reasons as set out below: After full consideration of the existing traffic issues in School Lane and considering the proposal made by Cllr Peter Lewington the Cabinet Member felt that providing on street parking in School Lane before 8 am and after 5 pm and prohibiting waiting between those times was worthy of consideration. However, due to new legislation being imposed by 2024 where pavement parking will be illegal, and enforcement will be taken it is not appropriate to approve Option B. Should there be a need for emergency vehicles, specifically a fire engine after 5 pm and before 8 am they would not be able to drive up School Lane. There are bollards situated on the opposite pavement and to provide access vehicles have to park on the pavement. There is no other access to these properties other than from School Lane which is a no through road.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
