Performance Of Parking controls and the impact on local businesses and residents REPORT OF THE SUSTAINABILITY REVIEW COMMITTEE London Borough of Islington March 2010 CHAIR’S FOREWORD Islington is a borough with a large population, compressed into a small geographical area and held together by streets. Our streets give us the ability to travel from one part of the borough to another. Bicycles, cars, public transport and walking all help us move around. Unfortunately, one of these modes comes at an extra price – cars take up a substantial amount of room when not in use. In rural areas and leafy suburbs, parked cars can live in garages, on spare land and in small town shoppers’ car parks. In Islington cars are parked either on the street – or on the street – or on the street – or occasionally on a frowned-upon hard standing in a front garden. There are four main types of kerbside parking – parking at home, parking when shopping, parking when carrying out building works, etc. and loading/unloading at shops and other commercial properties. Our review covered all of the major aspects and issues of parking, and we have made our best endeavours to produce constructive, feasible and fair proposals to improve our service to residents, businesses and visitors. There is a list of eighteen proposals. All of them are important and require full consideration and action. Perhaps the major theme running through our report is the importance of good communication, from simple signage to complex instructions. From split-second decisions by traffic wardens to discovering match-day status, everyone has a responsibility to communicate well and to interpret diligently. Our signage should be clear, highly visible, and unambiguous. Our proposals are based on the evidence given by users, businesses, traffic and parking professionals from Islington, Camden and the Corporation of London as well as representatives of Living Streets and London Buses. We hope that the Executive take all our recommendations seriously and ensure that action is taken to implement all of them. Finally, I should like to thank all those who contributed to this review for all the time and effort which they put into it.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Overview Committee approved the priority topics for scrutiny at their meeting on 9 June 2009. 1.2 The review commenced in October 2009. 2. OBJECTIVE OF THE REVIEW 2.1 In line with the motion at Council in February 2009 to undertake a review of parking intervention in light of concerns expressed by local businesses and residents. 3. METHODOLOGY AND TIMETABLING 3.1 Following the agreement of the Scrutiny Initiation Document a work programme was designed for the committee to receive presentations and witness evidence at Sustainability Review Committee. 3 4. THE COMMITTEE’S RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 That whilst it was noted that parking wardens had been on courses to improve their attitude towards residents and that this had improved, as evidenced by the recent mystery shopping findings, the need for all Parking wardens to respond and deal with residents in a more co- operative and reasonable way be re-emphasised. 4.2 That the recent introduction of pay by phone be welcomed and there be further investigation into extending this and also the possiblility of extending the chip and pin facility across the borough for short stay parking payments, which had already been introduced in some areas of the borough. 4.3 That the new leaflet that has been produced clarifying the signage for loading and unloading be circulated to businesses and resident parking permit holders in the borough and placed on the Council’s website the leaflet to include a more detailed description of the definition of loading/unloading as this is not clear at present. 4.4 That the Executive investigate additional methods of ensuring that residents are able to be made aware of when the Arsenal matchday restrictions are, which could include subscribing to a text phone facility, ringing a hotline, which should be free even if a resident is using a mobile phone, or accessing information on the website. The Committee are of the view that the Executive should explore with Arsenal F.C. the possibility of providing adequate and obvious signage about whether it is, or is not, permissible to park, a freephone number that can be contacted or lights/illuminated signs which can be used when matchday restrictions are in force. 4.5 That the Head of Parking engage with the Business Design Centre to resolve the problems referred to that have occurred in the past to ensure that there is a reduction in the queuing that has taken place in Liverpool Road by exhibitors waiting to load and unload and that the traffic congestion is minimised. 4.6 That the Committee note that the Executive had failed in its promise to initiate reviews of the hours of residential parking zones, including zone J, 12 months after their introduction and that this has resulted in a number of businesses and residents complaining that the their hours of restrictions on parking had not been able to be changed. It was noted that a review of controlled parking requires full consultation with the area and also requires funding for the consultation process. The Committee has heard evidence that both the Nags Head and Archway shopping centres and some residents and traders in other areas would like to see variations in these hours of restrictions. The Executive should also be requested to initiate regular reviews of the hours of residential controlled parking zones particularly after major developments, this to be accompanied by the necessary funding. 4.7 That the Committee welcome the fact that Islington was the first borough to cease clamping in London and that this had led to an improvement in the public’s perception of parking in Islington. 4.8 That the Executive be requested to investigate, given that the Committee had heard concerns on the cost of business parking permits for small and medium size businesses, the possibility of linking the cost of the business permit to CO2 emissions of the vehicle concerned to encourage the use of smaller more environmentally friendly vehicles. 4.9 The Committee noted that there were a number of issues that had been raised by the traders and residents in the Highbury Barn area relating to loading/unloading, signage and different parking times in neighbouring streets. The Committee request that a new leaflet be provided to be distributed to residents and traders in the area and on the website to ensure that they are 4 aware of the restrictions in place and to ensure that the parking times in neighbouring streets are looked at and reviewed if necessary. 4.10 That whilst noting that there had been a relaxation on parking restrictions during December to assist traders and shoppers, in recognition of the economic downturn, the Executive be recommended to agree a pilot scheme to take place in a particular shopping area and evaluate this pilot to see if reducing some bays to quick turnover bays assists traders and shoppers or whether there are altenative schemes that work more effectively. 4.11 That the Executive be requested to ensure that in future all new developments actively discourage car use and are car free developments and that residents of these new developments are not able to obtain residents parking permits. 4.12 That residents parking bays should leave enough space at road junctions to allow pedestrians and drivers clear lines of sight to ensure safe crossing of the road and existing bays should be looked at to ensure that this is the case. 4.13 That residents continue to be made aware of the need for parking restrictions, why they exist and make information available so that they understand them and ensure that parking restrictions are properly but fairly enforced, particularly where traffic flows and buses are potentially impeded. 4.14 That the parking policy be supported by upgrading the public realm and ensuring that the streetscape encourages alternative methods of transport apart from the car. 4.15 That the possibility of business holders being able to park in residents bays during certain periods of the day be investigated. 4.16 That the Executive be requested to investigate the provision of more cycle bays across the borough to encourage non car use. 4.17 That there be rigid enforcement of the parking regulations around parking on pavements given the dangers and inconvenience that this causes to pedestrians. 4.18 That the Committee welcome the more reasonable approach of a 40 minute observation period for loading and unloading for commercial vehicles which had been adopted both by the Council and TfL, which particularly took account of bulky loads. 5 5. BACKGROUND 5.1 The Council in February 2009 considered a motion from Councillor Martin Klute, which was seconded by Councillor Joan Coupland that – The Council notes the concern expressed by local businesses that the Council’s

  • APPENDIX ONE How the Council, Police and Social Landlords
    APPENDIX ONE How the Council, Police and Social Landlords promote the reporting of incidents of drug dealing, drug taking and related ASB in communal spaces and communicate the outcome of this reporting Scrutiny Report London Borough of Tower Hamlets April 2015 1 Chair’s Foreword Month after month, Tower Hamlets appears second in the list of London boroughs with the highest rate of reported anti-social behaviour (ASB). The casework belonging to councillors often reflects this. The police along with the council and social landlords have a duty to work in partnership to resolve this persistent problem. Feedback from the various agencies involved suggests that the local partnership model is working. However, residents and councillors often report that this multi-agency approach can sometimes lead to confusion. For example, some residents’ notice boards in the borough can have three different posters explaining the routes available to report anti-social behaviour. The reporting of ASB becomes more confusing when this behaviour is caused by drug abuse because of the crossover into criminal activity. Residents are also often unsure which agency is the first port of call. Even though the scope of this work was to look into the reporting of drug related ASB, the review focused on how ASB overall is reported, including how the outcome of this reporting is then communicated to residents. Since many cite that they have not been updated on the actions taken by agencies, nor have any knowledge of how problems have been resolved. The review makes six recommendations to improve partnership working in Tower Hamlets with the aim to reduce this confusion.

An authority’s place on the categorisation list clearly impacts on the chances of receiving funding from the £4.8bn available. The government’s methodology for how the categorisations were arrived at has not been published. However officers have pulled together some indices which indicate that Brent should have been in priority 1, set out in the report. 2 Recommendations for PCG Use the information detailed to lobby government, either as Brent or with either West London authorities, or London Councils. Consider submitting an FOI request to government asking for details of the methodology for the categorisations. Meeting 3 Detail The Levelling Up Fund Prospectus provides guidance on how local authorities can submit competitive bids for infrastructure funding from a £4.8 billion pot up to 2024-25.

In the UK, the current state of knowledge on the health impacts of air pollution is kept up to date by the Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants2, and this has been complemented by London specific studies such as those undertaken by the Institute of Medicine and King’s College London. The most recent report, by King’s College London3, estimated that the equivalent of over 9,000 Londoners died prematurely from long term exposure to air pollution in 2010. This underlines the fact that air quality is the most pressing environmental threat to the future health of London.

ACTION TO BE TAKEN UNDER Agenda Part I KD Num: 412 DELEGATED AUTHORIW - Subject: Setting of the level of Fixed Penalty Notices under The Unauthorised PORTFOLIO DECISION OF: Deposit of Waste (Fixed Penalties) Cabinet Member for Environment Regulations 2016 REPORT OF: Wards: All Director - Regeneration & Environment Contact officer and telephone number: Russell Hart. 020 8379 1785 E mail 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 On 9 May 2016, the Unauthorised Deposit of Waste (Fixed Penalties) Regulations 2016 ('the Regulations') came into force. The regulations make an amendment to the Environmental Protection Act 1990. 1.2 The amendment allows Local Authorities to issue a fixed penalty notice for a waste deposit (fly tipping) offence in the area of the authority and to determine the penalty charge amount, which can be no less than Ê150 and not more than Ê400. A lower amount may be also considered, which can be no less than Ê120, if the penalty is paid within 10 days of the date of the notice - but authorities are not required to do so. 1.3 The Council has applied the default Ê200 fixed penalty charge since May 2016 and to date has served a total of 25 fixed penalty notices for fly tipping. Since 1 April 2016, a further 644 Ê80 fixed penalty notices have been issued for low level fly tipping, which is classed as littering and 3823 fixed penalty notices have been issued by the Litter Enforcement Team. 1.4 London Councils through the London Councils' Transport & Environment Committee have proposed standardising the charge at Ê400 and it is proposed that L.B Enfield increase the current level to bring our charges in line with the rest of London.
