Council received the following public
questions from David Heathcote;
 
1)   
As the Council is
required to keep a separate account of income and expenditure in
respect of designated parking spaces including parking charges,
would the cabinet member tell me what was the financial position of
that separate account before the decision to increase car parking
charges by £2.6m, including information on the projected
position in 12 months’ time and specifically what will the
increased fees and any surplus be spent on?
 
2)   
Will funds or
surpluses raised from car parks in Honley and Meltham be
used for local projects in these areas?
 
A response was provided by the Cabinet Member
for Culture and Greener Kirklees (Councillor Butt).
