Parking fees
- 28 May 2020 08:25362912Well they are back !! went by car park near the college sign on railings parking charges from
Friday 22nd , also noted new fee from 1.10
To 1.30 but they have kept the 40p pop in charge which I use a lot .
It was empty of cars went back Tuesday still empty of cars
I can’t understand why so early when there’s nothing open , any one no why ?
Can’t surely be money as the government as given all councils extra funding to cove this short fall.
Are yes getting it from government and slipping us a fast one at same time !
Suppose they will shout out these reforms were passed pri to V day , well that’s ok so pay the government back that extra payment
They have given You to cover this short fall
After all I’m a tax payer I’ve already paid for my parking ticket and now you want me to pay again .

You'll find that the council is getting barely a fraction of the costs they are incurring from the current crisis added to a huge loss of income from parking, planning, sales and all sorts - these all help subsidise the three quid or so the average household pays DDC each week (it would cost you more than that in time and money if you needed to get rid of your own rubbish)
If this carries on too long many councils will be crisis and many non-statutory services will inevitably be cut if the government doesn't help more.....Ross Miller likes this - Captain Haddock

Oh dear. I believe ONE Councillor voted against this? (And I asked for my vote to be recorded)
