Concern at On-Street Car Parking Charges
Wednesday, October 25th, 2006
Richard Biggs and Molly Rennie are concerned about a number of aspects of the County Council’s proposals to introduce charges for on-street car parking.
“The County must ensure that local businesses are fully consulted about this proposal. Customers must not be driven away from local shops as a result of this charge,” said Richard. “I would like to see the County looking at introducing a refund scheme with small shops similar to that operated by Somerfield,” added Molly. “We must also make sure that the design of any parking machines is of a high quality and blends into the Conservation area.”
