The Police may recommend a place to be a vending zone, the Local Authority concerned may accept, modify or reject the recommendations with due reasoning and designate a place or location as vending zone, as it deems fit. (c) Principles for determining vending zones.– (i) An intensity of footfall, road width and density of the vehicular and pedestrian movement shall be the cornerstone for deciding vending zones. (ii) There shall be no restriction for free vending zones in the City and no vending zone should be minimal. The Town Vending Committee shall decide a particular street or market as vending zone or No vending zone on the basis of the following considerations namely:- (a) There shall not be any total restriction-free vending zones in the City.– The holding capacity of an area would put the ultimate on the number of street vendors which can be positioned in any area. However, there shall not be any restrictions on mobile vending in such area if, the vendors continuously move without affecting traffic and the movements. (b) Restricted Vending shall be linked with the road width keeping in view of the following aspects, namely.– (1) There shall not be any stationary street vending on road having width up to 3.5 metres. But, street vending can be allowed in such roads if, it is declared as non-vehicular road. (2) There shall not be any stationary vending on road having width between 6 metres and 9 metres. However, street vending can be allowed in such roads if, such road is declared as one way vehicular road. (3) There shall be only one side stationary vending on road having width between 12 metres and 24 metres, while both side stationary vending can be allowed on road having road width of 30 metres or above. (4) The number of street vendors shall be decided by considering holding capacity of each designated vending area on such road. (5) Such stationary vending shall be allowed after taking the clearance from the Traffic Police regarding the smooth vehicular and pedestrian movement. If required, road side parking shall be banned in such area where street vending is allowed. (6) Mobile vending shall be allowed on such road looking to the traffic and pedestrian movement. (d) In the No vending zones; the Town Vending Committee may decide the distance to be kept free from street vending near the important institutions like the Secretariat, District Collectorate, Office of the District Panchayat, Municipal Corporation, Municipality, Nagar Panchayat, Court Cantonment Board and State/ Union Territory Archaeological monument attracting a high footfall at its discretion taking into account the specifics of the area concerned. (e) The Town Vending Committee shall determine special vending zones, for a fixed period, during festival, considering the local as well as general importance or relevance of the festival. (f) Any person aggrieved by the designation of the vending zones in an area shall be entitled to make a representation to the Town Vending Committee concerned and the Committee shall consider the same and dispose within a period of 30 days from the date on which the representation is received or in the next meeting of the Town Vending Committee, whichever is earlier. (g) The identification of vending zones and no-vending zones shall be periodically reviewed by the Town Vending Committee once in three years in the same manner specified in sub-clause (2), particularly with reference to the growth or otherwise of the traffic and other developments in the area. 21. Manner of carrying street vending activities on time sharing basis.— (1) The Town Vending Committee shall determine vending activities on time sharing basis depending on the market needs. (2) Town vendors shall not be discriminated while allotting time sharing vending activities. 22. Preparation of Street Vending plan.—(1) The Town Vending Committee shall prepare a street vending plan. The holding capacity of the street vendors of any particular area or locality shall be limited to 1% of the population of Ward, Zone or City, as the case may be. (2) The Town Vending Committee, shall, identify the vending areas, based on the holding capacity, space available, number of vendors, etc., and designate that area to be a vending zone duly keeping in mind all other relevant norms. (3) The Town Vending Committee shall resort to drawal of lots for issue of Certificate of Street Vending in a particular area, which is identified for vending. The unsuccessful applicants shall be given preferential right for relocation as prescribed in the Scheme. (4) In areas having population and low density of vendors and where there are adjacent vending areas having high density of vendors and low resident population, the Town Vending Committee shall devise methods to enable the relocation of street vendors to other population centres, so as to avoid inequitable concentration of vendors, heavy flow of traffic and the inconvenience of people in travelling to such high density vending areas. 23. Vending on time sharing basis.—The Town Vending Committee concerned shall, when it is necessary and expedient in order to accommodate more number of vendors or in case the nature of business is such that the vendors carry on their vending only during certain time of the day or certain days of the year or month or week, form time restricted vending zones, where the vendors shall be issued the Certificates of Vending specifically stating the hours or days or such other periods of business. The said restrictions shall form part of the basic conditions of the Certificate of Vending. Any violation of which will result in adverse consequences to the vendors.
