Rejected petition Stop Leeds City Council introducing car parking fees at our local Parks.

Instead of encouraging healthy excercise and stopping obesity as recommended by the NHS and the Government themselves they are instead making it harder for the public to do this by charging for car parking and making it financially difficult for people to use these parks.

More details

Intervene and stop Leeds City Council charging for car parking at Recreational Parks and Community Green Spaces. Don't stop the public from using parks for recreational sports and family activities because they can't afford to pay for parking.
