Minutes:
The Director of Neighbourhood Services submitted a report providing an update on processing licences, enforcement activity and the implementation of the Service Plan for Quarter 4.
Members were advised that, under the licensing points system, a total of 178 points had been issued to 44 licence holders between 1 October and 31 December 2013. This formed part of the Council’s continued efforts to improve standards and behaviour amongst taxi drivers and proprietors.
In response to a query from the Chairman regarding parking on the pedestrianised part of Railway Street, Hertford, the Senior Specialist Licensing Officer explained that this was being kept under review, but that at this time, there was insufficient information to progress the matter.
The Senior Specialist Licensing Officer reminded Members about the policy of issuing parking tickets and the dangers of taxi drivers manoeuvring in this area. He reassured Members that Enforcement Officers would keep a close eye on the location.
Members received the report.
RESOLVED – that the report be received.
