Issue details

1.1 The purpose of this report is to consider re-designation of the streets listed in recommendation 2.2 below which are currently designated as prohibited streets to consent streets, and designating the streets listed in recommendation 2.3 below which are not currently subject to a designation as consent streets.

1.2 If approved, the change of designation from prohibited to consent for the purposes of street trading under the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982, will allow street trading to take place on those designated streets where street trading is currently prohibited, while giving Nottingham City Council (‘the Council’) control over the types of street trading allowed on those streets. Similarly, if approved, the designation of streets as consent streets which are not currently designated will give the Council control over the types of street trading allowed on those streets. These changes are considered appropriate in view of an overall review of street trading controls in the City Centre and changes in the City including restrictions to vehicle access to some prohibited streets.
