The Boards of the E14 Mill Quay Flats and Estate are planning to introduce controlled parking on the estate without any consultation with the residents whatsoever.
The scheme will be run by a private company who operate FOR PROFIT and have no concern about the wellbeing of the residents on the estate.
For the fines to be legally applied, the estate will be littered with unsightly parking control signs - given the legal minimum distance requirements.
Disputes will be fought with the parking companies directly otherwise will end up in court - stress that no-one currently needs.
Guest passes will need to be obtained for them to park adding additional administration for everyone.
To justify this Warwick Estates claim that the number of parking incidents/infringements and abandoned vehicles is currently uncontrollable and that they are simply reinforcing the estate deed and therefore do not need to consult the residents whatsoever!!
The residents should be consulted on this at bare minimum!

The lack of genuine consultation is a joke, made worse by the claim that this has happened. Freehold house residents need to be able to provide legitimate parking for visitors somehow - the rules as currently proposed offer no means of doing this.
The problem is that you are all blatantly ignoring the MQRA Deed of Transfer of Part, Third Schedule, 12 - which is the LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT that allows you to live at Mill Quay. This clearly outlines what and where MQRA residents can park. and states: For freeholders, private motor vehicles that are roadworthy and in regular use may only be parked in the garage or the driveway of the dwelling. That answers Anne-Marie Hopcrofts's question regards - where are our visitors expected to park!! If you allow them to park anywhere else you are in breach of your contract with MQRA. MQRA residents have no contractual rights to park in any of the CDE or ABFG car parks - they do not contribute towards the upkeep of these areas - if they do park in them, then technically they are 'trespassing' on private land. Why do none of you think you need to adhere to the terms of a legally binding contract?
The parking problems and related ASB/crime/drugs crime is continuing unabated. MQRA and residents continue to ignore the Rent Charge Deed and the Deed of transfer of part which are the legally binding contracts to allow us to reside at Mill Quay. This amounts to breach of contract - the rules in respect of parking are clearly laid out here: http://www.millquay.org/EstateRules.htm I can't understand why everyone thinks they can just ignore the lawfully binding contracts
Too complicated, too many restriction on flat tenants and landlords. A simple flat household parking permit with extra visitor permit will do the job. The purpose is to get rid of frequently offensive outsiders and not adding burden on flat residents.
Totally against this proposal.
I actually do not necessarily mind the implementation of a parking enforcement scheme but do not feel this is a fair system at all. Notwithstanding the lack of consultation, house owners will not be allowed to have a visitors pass so where are our visitors expected to park!!
I oppose the introduction of planned parking control and fines. Residents should be consulted on this important matter.

No consultation ! Why was this not discussed at the annual residents meeting? I can't see what the parking issue is. The flat carparks are never full and the road is not obstructed.
