Additional documents: Minutes: This petition was requesting that the traffic congestion and parking situation around Abbotsfield and Swakeleys School complex to be addressed as soon as possible, especially in light of the proposed expansion of the school.
The Cabinet Member made the following statement to the petitioners:
The current planning application of these schools has been withdrawn from tomorrow night’s Planning Committee agenda.
If schools or any other significant building has proposed to extend, the effect of (in this case) additional pupils and teachers will be considered as part of this planning process. If it is appropriate to do so officers would require the applicant to propose as part of their submission, schemes to alleviate parking/congestion issues brought about by the development.
It is not appropriate of the Cabinet Member to comment further on the schools expansion proposals and their possible effect on surrounding roads or any measures proposed to alleviate them at this time. As he explained, this would be considered as part of the planning process. The petitioners would be contacted again should a date in the future be set for consideration of these proposals.

Concerns and suggestions raised at the meeting included the following:
The Ward Councillor commented on the petition:
Councillor Keith Burrows listened to the concerns of the petitioners and responded to the points raised.
Officers advised that:
DECISION
That the Cabinet Member
1. Noted the residents concerns with “All day” commuter parking in their road and the request for limited time waiting restrictions. 2. Asked Officers to carry out a Council consultation with residents of Hill Lane and Hill Rise to point out that waiting restrictions will apply to themselves as well as visitors and if a scheme is still acceptable what are the preferred hours of operation.
Reasons for Recommendation:
It was clear residents of Hill Lane and Hill Rise were concerned with the level of commuter parking which they reported had increased in recent months. The proposed Council consultation would ascertain the level of support for their preferred choice of limited time waiting restrictions with the knowledge that restrictions would also apply to residents.
Alternative Options Considered:
The residents had carried out their own consultation on the options available to address “All day” commuter parking and their preferred choice was limited time restrictions.
