Here are some of the issues we have consulted on and their outcomes. See all outcomes
We sought your views on the School Street trial at St Thomas’s CofE Primary School in Heaton Chapel around: whether or not it should continue as a permanent scheme; views on how it operated; and what changes respondents would like to see if it became permanent.
There were a total of 265 responses. 119 parents/guardians indicated that they would like the scheme to continue unchanged with 10 responding that they would not. 19 residents who were permit holders (not parents/guardians) indicated that they would like the scheme to continue unchanged, with 3 seeking changes and 13 against its continuation. Of residents in the wider neighbourhood, 61 respondents indicated that they would be happy to see the School Street continue, 6 sought changes and 20 were against.
The key suggestions arising from the consultation were:
The consultation comments and analysis have been shared with the Ward Councillors who have agreed that the scheme should continue. Changes suggested will be explored further and may be progressed should funding become available.
This consultation had 17 responses. 88.2% of respondents were in favour of the introducing the 3-year PSPO.
Those who agreed with the proposal stated protestors were intimidating and aggressive to staff. Further comments were made regarding the effect on the wider public, including “One Stockport Hub is a family friendly environment and the aggressive nature of the protests deterred residents from visiting, both for vaccinations and to use the space with their families”, and another saying that the E-PSPO “was very effective in minimising distress to staff and members of the public.”
The respondents who were both for and against the proposal commented on the right to peaceful protest, and safeguarding staff against intimidation.
Those who did not agree with the proposal questioned whether it was needed for a further three years, given that the intimidating and aggressive behaviour outside the clinics is vastly reduced.
We asked for the views of Hawk Green residents who live adjacent to the village green on a proposal to install a picnic bench and memorial plaque as part of the Council’s COVID Community Commemoration Fund project. Preferences between three possible locations for the bench were sought, with the option also to reject the proposal.
A total of 44 responses were received.
27 respondents (61%) rejected the proposal and 17 (39%) were in favour.
Reasons given
In the main, the objections submitted related to the potential for an increase in anti-social behaviour and litter on the green and an increase in local traffic congestion.
Preferred location
Of those in favour of the installation (17):
In response to the feedback received, a picnic table will not be installed. Instead, a planter and plaque will be installed. In line with your feedback the planter will be located adjacent to Hawk Green Road, near The Crown public house. |
