Chesterfield Borough Council's projected increase in car parking income for this year, residents will be interested to know, is £136,000! Many local residents have asked "Where will this money come from?" The fact is of course, that it will come from the big increases in parking charges levied on local residents by the incumbent Labour Chesterfield Borough Council this year. The previous Liberal Democrats administration charged a single daily rate of only £1.40 all day on Sundays, this has changed overnight to an hourly charge - a massive increase! Daily charges by the hour have increased; and the same daily charges have now been stretched to 8.00pm on some days for residents and all days for visitors to the town; not exactly encouraging for trade and tourism coming from beyond our boundaries. All this has come after Labour telling residents for many years that car parking charges in Chesterfield were much too high.
