Parking around Barnet Hospital

 

The lead petitioner was not in attendance.

 

A question from Linda Lusingu and the Highways officer’s response was noted.

 

A Member asked when the proposed permits for Barnet Hospital (BH) staff were likely to be in place. The Head of Parking and Infrastructure reported that the matter was in progress and he estimated these would be implemented in around one month’s time.

 

A Member asked whether BH’s planning application for 70 extra parking spaces were being considered in relation to the staff permits. The Head of Parking noted that this would not affect the staff permits due to be issued by LB Barnet.

 

Patricia Yorke’s question and comment, and the officer’s responses were noted.

The Chairman invited Cllr Longstaff to speak on his Member’s Item - Field End CPZ. Cllr Longstaff stated that Kerri Close and other roads in the area may wish to be part of the CPZ and requested that they be included in the consultation. Around 650m of space would be taken up by staff permits for Barnet Hospital so parking would be more difficult in the area for residents.
