This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Borough Councils across the country are putting up the costs of residents parking permits. This is limiting for families and those in need of care.
More details
That all councils are expected to supply the first parking permit for a household without charge of any kind. Permits for subsequent vehicles should not be charged over £50.
Visitors passes should also not be charged over £50 and should be for an unlimited time period.
Those over 60 should not have to pay for visitors passes or the 1st household pass to enable family visits and visits for carers and medical staff.
Passes should be free for those with mobility vehicles and those requiring daily carer visits. It is not right for those providing medical services or help to family etc to risk being fined for taking time with those they are visiting.
