NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on 5 March 2025 Chichester District Council’s General Licensing Committee passed the following resolution.
That pursuant to its powers under paragraph 2 of Schedule 4 to the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982 the General Licensing Committee meeting held on 5 March 2025 to designate further prohibited areas of the city to be varied, so that the locations described below are to become Consented Streets with effect from 9 May 2025.
Currently street trading by way of a Consent is prohibited within certain areas of the city centre unless designated ‘consented streets’.
The areas of ‘consented streets’ have been extended to include:
• Chichester Cathedral – Cathedral Green (running around the front and eastern elevation to the Eastern Cloister) / Southwest Lawn / West Entrance and Paradise
• Bishop Palace Gardens
• Jubilee Gardens
• East Pallant / South Pallant car parks
• Cawley Priory car park
• South Pall car park
• Market Avenue / Road car parks
• St Cyriacs car park
• St John’s Street car park
• Priory Park
The effect of the variation will be that street trading in those parts of the streets will continue to be prohibited unless it takes place under the authority of a Consent issued by the District Council.
