Councillors in the East Riding have been discussing the cost of parking enforcement in the region.
It's part of a review of car parking costs in the area.
Here's Councillor Richard Meredith:
Councillor Meredith said that's £430 per year per space and that a report on car parking in the area doesn't have a breakdown of those costs.
The Council's director of asset strategy said costs included CCTV- security- machines- maintenance and staff wages.
Claire Hoskins added:
This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.
A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
