ASHFIELD PARADE MARKET PETITION

We would like to see a Sunday street market in Ashfield Parade along with the freedom for all cafes and restaurants there to have tables and chairs - subject to pavement access - outside their establishments. We support the initiative of the Community Anchor for a regular Sunday community-owned street market, involving local farm and allotment grown produce and other specialities not otherwise available in Southgate. We strongly believe this to be in the best interests of Southgate, and ask the Council to respect the wishes of Southgate residents and traders by giving them the chance to work together in common cause. Therefore, please grant all the cafes and restaurants in the Parade the right to have their tables and chairs set out outside, and the Anchor association a free license to Sunday street trade in Ashfield Parade, so they can self-fund their community-cohesion and citizenship building project.
