To consider the recommendation of Executive on 12th September, 2023,

RECOMMENDED that Full Council approves the revised fees and charges listing to be implemented with effect from 1 October 2023 (car parking with effect from 1 November 2023) with the following additions:-

(1)            That the Sunday Parking permit for the full day remain at £1, with free parking in all our car parks after 6pm;

(2)            That a blue badge yearly permit be introduced so that a holder of the disabled blue badge can park in an off road car parking space for the allotted time of the blue badge for a yearly cost of £30.00 for 1 year, £50.00 for 2 years or £70.00 for 3 years to be used in any Teignbridge owned car park; and

(3)            The New Road Car Park, Starcross and the Kingskerswell Car Park will be allowed a residents permit which would allow people to pay monthly, 3 months, 6 months or a year - we are aware off the limited parking spaces so it doesn't guarantee a parking space but it takes away the hassle of feeding the meter each day. For simplicity permits charges which apply at the Strand Car Park in Starcross will be the same for the New Road car park and Kingskerswell which could be done on a trial basis for the next six months and see how it goes before the 2024-25 budget is set.

The Executive Member for Corporate Services proposed that Full Council approves the revised fees and charges listing to be implemented with effect from 1 October 2023 (car parking with effect from 1 November 2023) with the following addition:-

The New Road Car Park, Starcross and the Kingskerswell Car Park will be allowed a residents permit  which would allow those residents only of Starcross or Kingskerswell for a year - we are aware off the limited parking spaces so it doesn't guarantee a parking space but it takes away the hassle of feeding the meter each day. For simplicity permits charges which apply at the Strand Car Park in Starcross will be the same for the New Road car park and Kingskerswell which could be done on a trial basis with no refunds for the next six months being reviewed before the 2024-25 budget is set.

This was seconded by the Leader, put to the vote and carried.

RESOLVED to approve the revised fees and charges listing to be implemented with effect from 1 October 2023 (car parking with effect from 1 November 2023) with the following addition:-
