The three submissions were discussed and the issues highlighted were noted.  The Members suggested the possibility of using the parking spaces outside the shops from 9pm when these shops would be closed.  However, as there were only 2 of the 5 Councillors present, they undertook to discuss this suggestion with the other three Councillors and revert with the outcome.
