COUNCIL MINUTESTUESDAY 26 JUNE 2012The questions presented in the survey were:-Q1. Do you support "No change to current parking restrictions?"Yes or NoQ2. Do you support "No Parking Road or Verge - ResidentialPermit Parking Excepted".Q3. Do you support "2 Hour Parking 9.00am to 5.00pm" for thenorthern side of Brighton and Antrim Streets?Q4. Any other Comments or Suggestions:A copy of the letters and survey forms is attached to this report.ResponsesThree responses were received from residents of Antrim Street representing 18% of theresidences. All respondents supported the proposal of "No Parking Road or Verge -Residential Permit Parking Excepted".Five responses were received from residents of Brighton Street, representing 18% of theresidences. Of these, three supported the proposal of "No Parking Road or Verge - ResidentialPermit Parking Excepted" and two indicated a preference of no change to the current parkingrestrictions.There was little support (1 person in Antrim Street) for Question 3. The "2 Hour Parking" canprevent all day parking and allow visitors or tradespersons to park without a permit.CommentAlthough the percentage response to the survey was relatively small, it is considered that inAntrim Street the support for "No Parking Road or Verge - Residential Permit ParkingExcepted" is clear and it is recommended that these restrictions be implemented for the northside of the road from Coldstream Street to the start of the cul-de-sac.The response from residents of Brighton Street was sufficient to indicate a preference forsimilar parking restrictions as those proposed for Antrim Street.It is considered that, should the existing restrictions in Brighton Street be retained and therestrictions in Antrim Street be amended, commuters and others seeking all day parking willmove to Brighton Street. It is therefore recommended that parking restrictions indicating "NoParking Road or Verge - Residential Parking Permit Excepted" be implemented on the northside of Brighton Street from Coldstream Street to the start of the cul-de-sac.H:\CEO\GOV\COUNCIL MINUTES\12 MINUTES\JUNE 2012\C CR.DOCX 71
