To consider a report of the Head of Highways and Parking Services detailing a sustained objection to recent proposals to introduce a permit parking scheme in Chetwynd Drive, as part of the formal legal process of consultation with regard to Traffic Regulation Orders.

(ii)  That the permit parking restrictions should operate from 1^st October to 31^st May of each year.
