Minutes:

The Director of Neighbourhood Services submitted a report detailing the options for additions to taxi rank provision in Bishop’s Stortford.  He also sought authorisation for consultation with the licensed taxi trade for further evaluation of the available options.

 

Members were reminded that the main taxi rank in Bishop’s Stortford was a significant distance from the upper town area of North Street and South Street.  The Licensing Manager stated that a number of suggestions for alternative provision had come to light following a walk around the town centre with Town Councillors.  These were discussed.

 

Members received the report.

 

RESOLVED – that the consultation with the licensed taxi trade to further evaluate the options for additional taxi rank space in Bishop’s Stortford be approved.
