4. Who is responsible for designing the methodology of the parking scheme?
Devon County Council Officers and Councillors have worked together on the proposals.
5. What is the plan for parking displacement for all the other residents zones?
It is always recognised that when introducing new restrictions that some parking will displace. The original proposals were drafted considering this and the area considered was large enough area
that it was considered displacement would be negligible. After considering the comments from the statutory consultation, the decision has been made to scale back the proposals. It is recognised that some of these areas may experience displaced parking but this is not guaranteed. This is one of the reasons why it has agreed to review the restrictions and the impact once they have been
implemented, and report back to the East Devon Highways and Traffic Orders Committee in December 2023.

The original report (suggesting all zones have parking permits) was the basis for all of the equality and environmental considerations. however, now only 2 zones have been imposed parking restrictions, will there be a new report considering the changes to the proposed scheme prior to the planning of implementing the scheme?
No. The report to the December HATOC meeting considered matters in light of the recommendations.
