Purpose

This report sets out the recommendation for the proposed Off Street Parking Places (Amendment 8) Order 2023 and next steps.

On 16 May 2022 the Executive considered a report on the regeneration of Fareham town centre, including Fareham Live and Osborn Road multi-storey car park.  Since this date, both projects have progressed with Osborn Road multi-storey car park having now received planning permission.  A report updating on the progress at Osborn Road multi-storey car park was presented to the Executive on 03 July 2023, with a further report presented to the Executive on 18 September 2023.

Both Fareham Live and the work at Osborn Road multi-storey car park have an impact on the Council’s Off-Street Parking Places Consolidation Order 2017, which will require an Amendment Order.

The report sets out the options for proposed amendments and asks that the Executive agree to take them forward through the statutory process to inform the public in the form of a four week Draft Off-Street Parking Places (Amendment 8) Order 2023 consultation.
