2020 Update on Parking zones in ED and West Peckham.

[roywj]

Lordship lane and it's shops are not even within the incoming cpz and there will still be free parking on lordship lane and most surrounding streets so how is it affected?

Yes, you do,

"disabled badge holder?s vehicles - ?31.25 (12 months)"

Lots of people complaining about Southwark's tactics but are you all also complaining to the council as I suggested earlier or are you just letting air escape as the fight dies in you (which is what the council hope will happen)

If you truly believe the consultations were biased towards the council then complain and get something on record about your perceived injustice which makes any later enquiry more likely to deliver results.

Hello Spartacus, your right, we do need to let the council know.

I want to let my feelings know, how do I contact the council?

Many of us complained before they made the decision and they dismissed every complaint and objection out of hand and shut down all debate on the issue.

If they don't listen to residents as part of the consultations they are legally compelled to undertake, I have no faith whatsoever that they will bother to do so after the fact.

Complaining is the first step in the process and must be undertaken so that you can get a letter dismissing your claim which then supports a request to https://www.lgo.org.uk/ to review the councils decision.

Yes the previous objections have appeared to be ignored but this is an important step that is required first.

As to whom to complain to , I would suggest copy emails / letters to the following people

Leader of the council

Head of parking

Your local councillor

Sorry I don't have addresses for any of them but if anyone does then feel free to post them here.
