12-1005 Resolved:
1. That Council change the No Stopping length on the north side of Lawson Street, Byron Bay
immediately east of Jonson Street, to a Loading Zone.
2. That following the installation of the Loading Zone, Council assess any impacts upon the
existing disabled bay, with any decision regarding potential changes (if any) be first
consulted upon with Council’s Access Advisory Committee before being reported back to
the Local Traffic Committee.
The Committee will recall this recommendation was based on the tabling of a late item and time
was not available to ascertain the benefit and or feasibility of Part 1 which has been unable to
proceed due to insufficient length.
However, as per Part 2, this matter was referred to Council’s Access Advisory Committee who at
their 7 February 2013 meeting supported relocating the existing disabled bay to the opposite
(south) side of the street so space is made available for the creation of a loading zone on the north
side.
On 28 February 2013 Council endorsed this proposal as follows;
