Consultation
It is recommended guidance that an Authority should consult and notify the following stakeholders ahead of making a designation:
- every undertaker known to the street authority to be working in its area
- every undertaker that has given the authority notice of its intention to start working in its area
- every other local authority for the street to which the proposed designation relates
- Transport for London, where the street is in Greater London
- the chief officer of police, chief executive of fire and rescue authority, the chief executive of the National Health Service ambulance trust
- Passenger Transport Executives and other transport authorities, such as light rail operators
- any person who has submitted a written request to be given notice of a proposed designation. This may include other street authorities for example Highways England or Network Rail
- the occupiers of any property that fronts the street concerned
The Council will hold a 30-day consultation period which begins on 27 November 2023.
Consultation responses
Enquiries or objections can be raised with Lincolnshire County Council, and these will be given careful consideration and a response given. The Council then may either continue to make the designation, with or without modifications and will act reasonably in coming to a decision.
