Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Green Lanes 2015?

 

Haringey Council is relaxing its street trading policy for a trial period of six months and will consider applications for street markets, occasional stalls or seasonal trading at specific sites.

Haringey's Cabinet Member for the Environment, Cllr Nilgun Canver, said:

"We get frequent requests for temporary street trading and are looking at what opportunities a relaxation of the regulations might bring.

"Clearly, we will consult existing traders in an area before any decisions are made as to which sites may be suitable and what trading might be agreed at them.

"Ideally, we will be looking to see how temporary street trading might encourage greater footfall to an area, thereby enhancing trading for everybody, or where it will help people access a variety of seasonal or novelty goods or services not easily available locally."

Last week the council's General Purposes Committee agreed to relax the rules, amending the street trading policy to allow applications to be considered.

The decision applies across the borough.
