Members' Items - Community Infrastructure Levy Funding PDF 264 KB Additional documents:
Minutes: The Committee considered the following Member requests for CIL funding.
Brunswick Park Road – Request for Traffic Survey Cllr Lisa Rutter (Brunswick Park Ward)
I have been contacted by several residents regarding traffic problems along Brunswick Park Road just after the cemetery. I have witnessed the problems myself which is chaos. The exact site problem starts from 151 to 131 Brunswick Park Road N11 1EG. These row of houses do not have driveways and therefore have to park their cars on the road. This however blocks one side of the road and as the road is narrow anyway just after the cemetery roundabout, this causes traffic chaos and road rage. A bus a few weeks ago lost control mounting the pavement into the walls of two properties. Vehicles and buses are unable to move freely and there is constant car hooting and vehicle tail backs waiting to give ways. I have personally surveyed this stretch of road and residents’ initial thoughts were for footway parking along this stretch of road but after speaking to Jamie Blake he has confirmed that the pavement is too narrow. The other suggestion by residents is permanent traffic lights which will resolve the problem as this would allow traffic to take turns without causing chaos. Residents were able to see that this worked when temporary traffic lights were recently installed for road works. Residents are really fed up and want a solution. Request for £3,000 for a Traffic Survey.
The Chairman reported that the installation of traffic lights would be outside of the remit of the Committee notwithstanding the fact that the cost would be way above the £25,000 funding limit.
Highways Officers proposed that double yellow lines be installed at the mid- point of this section of Road to provide a traffic passing point. It was noted that this would be subject to full statutory consultation with local residents.
RESOLVED that this be funded from CIL funding as part of the overall funding for waiting restrictions agreed at the meeting.

Funding to implement double yellow lines on the corner of the lower side of the carriageway where Cowper Road meets Shamrock Way Cllr Roberto Weeden-Sanz (Brunswick Park Ward)
I request funding to implement double yellow lines on the corner of the lower side of the carriageway where Cowper Road meets Shamrock Way. This is to prevent people from parking their vehicles dangerously on the corner which causes problems with visibility for vehicles driving down Cowper Road who wish to turn left and will reduce the possibility of accidents. Whilst Highways Officers will need to recommend the optimal length necessary I would suggest that 4 metres on the bend would be around the optimal length. Please refer to the attached photo for the exact proposed location for the double yellow lines.
RESOLVED that this be funded from CIL funding as part of the overall funding for waiting restrictions agreed at the meeting.

Results of the Statutory Consultation - Proposed extension to the Barnet Hospital CPZ PDF 277 KB Additional documents: Minutes: This report summarised the comments, representations and objections received in response to the statutory consultation relating to the proposed extension to the Barnet Hospital Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) in Grimsdyke Crescent, Kings Road, Cavendish Road and Jennings Way, in order for the Committee to determine whether or not the proposal should be introduced and if so, with or without modification.
Representations were heard from Frank Niesiolowski, Michael Yorke and Councillor David Longstaff.
Concerns were expressed about the impact of displaced parking opposite a parade of shops in Underhill Ward, which included a pharmacy and hairdressers. The concept of introducing restricted parking at this location was discussed. However, the Ward Councillor (Paul Edwards) asked that no funding decisions be made until he had spoken to the affected shopkeepers for their views. The Chairman said that any proposals for the introduction of parking restrictions at this location could be brought as a Members Item to the next meeting of this Committee.
It was also noted that £5,000 had already been set aside to carry out a parking impact study on surrounding roads six months after the implementation of the CPZ.
Councillor David Longstaff asked how quickly the CPZ would be introduced in the four roads if the Committee agreed. The Strategic Director for Environment replied that it would be implemented in December 2018.
RESOLVED that the Chipping Barnet Area Committee:
i) notes the summary of the responses received to the statutory consultation on the proposed CPZ in Grimsdyke Crescent, Kings Road, Cavendish Road and Jennings Way EN5; and
ii) authorise the Strategic Director for Environment to introduce the Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) in Grimsdyke Crescent, Kings Road, Cavendish Road and Jennings Way EN5 as per drawing no SCR223a, through to the making of the relevant Traffic Management Orders to be funded as follows: · up to £16,500 from the Area Committee funding allocation · £5,000 from the remainder of the Section 106 contributions relating to the Elmbank development on Barnet Rd, Barnet
iii) authorise the Strategic Director for Environment to inform all those previously consulted to update them on the Committee’s decisions and proposed future action. ACTION: STRATEGIC DIRECTOR ENVIRONMENT
