Licence to allow a contractor to use parking spaces for its vehicles at Arnold Leisure Centre Car Park (Car Park) so that it may carry out upgrade works (the Works) to a telecoms mast which is situated on adjacent land.

Reference: D879

Decision Maker: Deputy Chief Executive and Director of Finance

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

To allow access to the Car Park in order to carry out the Works.

Decision:

To approve the licence to allow the Works to take place within the Car Park.

Reasons for the decision:

The licence will allow for an important upgrade to the telecoms mast to take place.

Alternative options considered:

An alternative would be to not allow use of the Car Park however, as the Works must be completed this would force the contractor to use other land for its vehicle set up. The only other land which could be used is the adopted highway. Vehicle set up on the adopted highway would cause disruption to traffic in Arnold Town Centre. Granting the licence is therefore preferable.
