Further to Minute 37 of the previous meeting, the Executive Director for Economic Growth and Neighbourhood Services submitted a report providing the Sub-Committee with an update following further investigation of a number of schemes, as requested at the previous meeting, and sought approval for officers to carry out statutory consultation to enable progression of the 2019B programme.  Recommendations and drawings that had been proposed for statutory consultation were attached to the report at Appendix 1.

The report explained that the proposal sought to address parking issues that had been raised with the Council, alongside those that had been reported at the previous meeting.  The initial list of requests, which had been agreed for investigation by the Sub-Committee, had been reported to at the meeting on 11 September 2019 (Minute 16 refers).  The drawings setting out the proposals, which were included in the report, had been shared with Ward Councillors and an opportunity had been provided for comment.  However, due to the relatively short period of time between the January and March 2020 meetings, there had been less time in which to seek comments, compared with the time allowed in the typical operation of the programme.
