Advice

The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.

Background

A resident of David Street, Forest Lodge has requested a mobility parking space in David Street. The resident has advised that a family member of their household has a Mobility Parking Scheme (MPS) Permit and that they are a wheelchair user.

Given that there are steps leading from the street to resident's property, the resident has advised that they do not require a wheelchair kerb ramp and would transfer their family member to/from the wheelchair to the car.
