In 2015 Housing Services were asked by Members and Residents to review and implement parking enforcement over three Housing owned sites, Gibraltar House, Mayflower House and The Keys Eagle Way.

At Environment and Housing Management Committee in March 2016 it was agreed by Members that these car parks be included in the parking order.

The final costs for parking permits needed to be agreed.

A meeting was booked for the 5^th July at 17.30 in the Town Hall where affected residents and businesses would be consulted on the proposed costs.
