Representation Summary:

Like it or not the founding reasons of Southend's original success was rich London families who wanted to live by the sea. Their money was its reason for success and the city needs that cash injection again. Attracting London professionals to the area would not force out social or affordable housing but actually pay for it, create jobs and maintain a balance in society which Southend Centre currently lacks. This would also break down that Leigh On Sea and Southend social divide which is ridiculous as Southend itself could be far nicer than crammed in Leigh On Sea with its lack of sea front and crammed streets.

Question 25: Do you agree with the proposed approach to managing development within the Clifftown Policy Area? Please explain your answer.

Representation Summary:

Clifftown conservation area should have strict parking control as seen in the residential areas of Thorpe Bay. More double yellow lines should be introduced on all roads in Clifftown especially Clifftown Parade where parking congestion makes the road dangerous due to speeding vehicles and the narrowing of the road by parked cars. The theatre should provide parking as should the Council facilitate parking for commuters elsewhere. All official driveways should be white lined by the council to stop illegal parking and allow residents access to their own driveways. Over parking in Clifftown is a major issue, especially in Clifftown Parade. Over parking ruins what is supposed to be a conservation area, the vehicle fumes is also bad for the buildings and occupants themselves. The summer time parking restrictions do not go far enough and they should be year round. why should we the residents have to adhere to the planning rules in article 4 when all the extra money we spend on keeping our properties in aesthetic order is then ruined by hundreds of cars jam packed in along the streets we live in which ruin the look of the area anyway?! Clifftown Parade should have no on street parking at all.
