Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

The Sub Committee received a report of the Director of the Built Environment which considered current practices in relation to permitting Advertising Boards (‘A’ Boards) on the footway in the City and recommended that they should not be permitted.  The Sub Committee noted that prior to a decision being taken by the Planning and Transportation Committee; this report would be submitted to the Policy and Resources Committee for comment.

The Sub Committee considered ‘A’ Boards were obstructive and that shops and businesses should advertise in the correct way to reduce clutter and competing problems on streets. The Sub Committee expressed its support for the report.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
