\n
The main purpose of the meeting was to establish a clear understanding of the parking rules for the development moving forward, ensuring both UKCPM and residents are aligned.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
We want to stress that the Residents Association has been working extremely hard on this matter on behalf of everyone.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
We fully appreciate that not everyone will be happy with the outcome, but this is the fairest and most practical solution we have been able to achieve after lengthy discussions and negotiations.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

          \n

          \n
          At present, UKCPM are ticketing vehicles that are:<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
          \n
            \n

                Parked on a bend<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
                \n
                  \n
                • \n
                  Within 10 metres of a junction<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
                  \n
                    \n
                  • \n
                    Obstructing traffic or other parking<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    It was agreed that these rules, as they stand, have created a lot of ambiguity around where residents and visitors can and cannot park. To address this, the RA made suggestions to UKCPM to improve fairness and clarity.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    This does mean that in some areas parking will no longer be possible. However, the goal is to balance enforcement while still allowing logical and safe parking on roadways to maximise available spaces.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n

                    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    UKCPM have agreed to pause site visits until\u00a01st September 2025<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0while they update the signage and train the wardens on the new rules and maps. This is to ensure enforcement is consistent and fair once it restarts.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

                    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    UKCPM confirmed that all current yellow lines must be repainted and additional new ones installed for proper enforcement. However, this comes at a cost to all residents and would likely increase service charges.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                    \n
                    The RA pushed back on this, as we are all in agreement that no one wants unnecessary rises in service charges. That said, this will still need to be addressed, and RMG will notify all residents directly.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

                                RMG and UKCPM have confirmed that UKCPM can trace ownership of commercial vehicles in visitor bays using VIN numbers, even if plates are removed. This means removing plates will not prevent ticketing.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
