Julian slams blue badge access survey
August 8, 2023
Julian has slammed a City of York Council consultation on restoring blue badge access to the city centre on the basis that the questions are flawed and do not allow any real scope of opinion.
The consultation implies that the only options are keep access under the current arrangements or invite an attack on our city. This is clearly false with Julian believing that through conversation and compromise a solution can be found.
Speaking after the consultation launched, Julian commented:
“I share the concerns of many constituents that the questions are flawed and do not allow any real scope of opinion. Ideally, I would like to see the current consultation closed and a new consultation launched that addresses these concerns.
Unfortunately, there is no guarantee this will happen so I encourage residents to complete the current consultation rather than boycott it due to concerns.
I will write to City of York Council on behalf of residents who have already been in contact with me and press for a fresh consultation.”
