Finally , the residents themselves, some of whom have 2,3,4 and even more cars/vehicles to one address. Also there are a growing number of company/private owned vans that are parked overnight/weekend and these seem to be getting larger and longer!

Yeah I bet it's really annoying, I suppose the permit parking may tempt residents to having less cars, or would they just pay more for extra permits? So where as it would be back to square one
As for dropping off an picking up, I dunno if that would change even if permit parking came in would it? As they are only there a short time, there wouldn't be a parking attendant walking round constantly
