Parking Action by Cllr Mike Bell

26 Sep 2018

Councillor Mike Bell reports: "challenged North Somerset Council's Conservative leader again at a council meeting last night on parking. He promised me a 'review' in January, repeated this in April and still hasn't delivered.

"Residents in the pay and display zone cannot park near their homes, parking charges are too high, enforcement is not always fair and we need residents' parking zones. Action cannot come too soon.

"The good news: he said that some work looking at options and a strategic approach had been done behind the scenes and that he would announce something by the end of October.

"The bad news: he's said this before and so far there has been no cross-party engagement (which was promised) and no consultation with residents and businesses (which is vital).

"I guarantee that I'll keep banging the drum until we win fairer parking policies! In the meantime, if you have any comments, please get in touch."
