Proposed Prohibition of Overnight Parking for Motor Caravans (Re-advertisement) - Various Roads in Scarborough/Cayton/Filey/Sandsend/Whitby Copies of the relevant documents can be viewed on the County Council’s website (Resident - North Yorkshire County Council) under “Transport and Streets - Parking” and “Consultations”. Please note that any objections or representations should be sent in writing to “Area 3 Whitby Highways Office, Whitby Highways Depot, Discovery Way, Whitby, North Yorkshire YO22 4PZ” or by e-mail to area3.whitby@northyorks.gov.uk and be received by 6 March 2015. It will only take 5 minutes to email area3.whitby@northyorks.gov.uk. Let's deluge them with 100's of objections protesting against this illegal discriminatory motorhome ban. They will need to reconsider if there is enough objection. Here is the direct link to the page on NYCC website: www.northyorks.gov.uk/motorhomeconsultation

There are other places to go (at the moment). But if we let Scarborough get away with this, other councils could get ideas. It could be the thin end of the wedge.
The number of objections does count. When they tried to close the byways to traffic and motorhomes at Stonehenge, they got 350 objections which forced Wiltshire County Council to go to public enquiry. 350 is a lot of objections. At the public enquiry, we won. The inspector ruled the ban was not needed. Motorhomers 1 Town Hall 0
We can get 1000's of objections from motorhomers if we get our act together!

They increased the deadline to 19th March which shows they are getting submerged with objections. Keep them coming!

I think that refers to parking on pavements, not parking at the kerbside. Parking on pavements is not normally allowed because it obstructs the pavements for pedestrians and makes it especially awkward for wheelchairs and pushchairs to pass, but some local authorities do allow it in some places if it is felt that the benefit to road traffic outweighs the inconvenience to pedestrian traffic.

Yes they are a useful lobby and info group, but kind of toothless without the bums on seats/emails and forms sent, which we are following through with

Submission made. One comment.....Mary and I stayed at the car park in Church Street, Whitby two weeks ago where we witnessed the 'No Motor Caravan' signage. The car park was full overnight with locals parking because of tiered housing on the hill adjacent with little or no on street parking. Therefore a need for control, but not the same problem on North Promenade !

Well good luck to him. Not my kind of party, but it takes an effort to be part of the political process. If we had nobody who stood for election and represented people, it would be anarchy which when it comes down to it is survival of the strongest and fitest

Council replies:
There's an opportunity here to lobby Josie O'Dowd or Jane Connolly which I'll be doing.
