Parking is an issue which many of you feel strongly about.

Inserted is Note 28 page 64 of the Draft Statement of Accounts, it speaks about “On street parking.”
At both Overview & Scrutiny Committee on Tuesday 12th June and at Cabinet on Wednesday 13th June 2018 report C/18/08 was presented to Cllrs. At Page 36 of the report. it states
At Note 2.8 of the Cabinet Papers (pg 37) it states:
The Draft accounts show a decrease of £49,000 year on year for income relating to on street parking, not a substantial increase, as quoted. We know there are some very clever and very creative accountants out there who might be able to explain how a decrease of £49,000 might become a substantial increase.
