Concerns over parking fees

Liberal Democrat plans to hike residents’ parking permits by almost 26 per cent have been slammed by city councillors amid concerns over reasons to justify the increase.

Gloucestershire County Council’s chiefs are hoping to raise £338,000 more during the next financial year by charging residents more for residential parking permits and on-street parking fees.

Their budget proposals, which were scrutinised at the corporate overview and scrutiny committee on January 7, suggest increasing a households’ first parking permit from £63.60 currently to £80 from April – an increase of 25.8 per cent.

The cost for a second parking permit would also be hiked to £160 from £127.35 currently.
