Bid to have Tamworth Sunday parking charges overturned
More than 1,000 people have signed a petition opposing the introduction of Sunday parking charges in charges were approved by members of Tamworth Borough Council last week and came into force last councillor Richard Kingstone, who set up the petition, said: "The small businesses that give life and character to our town centre are in real danger of shutting down due to these irrational charges."Because the petition has reached the 1,000 signature milestone it will be debated by councillors again and Mr Kingstone hopes they will reverse the decision. Nova Arkney, the councillor responsible for infrastructure, heritage and local economy on the Labour-run authority, said the money raised would be used to "deliver more important services".She also said she believed people saw Tamworth as a tourist destination and "will pay a small fee on a Sunday to park and use our facilities".But Mr Kingstone said the Sunday car parking charges "threaten to destroy the very fabric of this community".
