LIBERAL Democrats in Blaydon constituency have consulted hundreds of households about proposals by Gateshead Council to introduce parking charges at Whickham, Blaydon and Birtley.
Nearly 1000 households have been emailed a consultation form and almost 100 have so far replied.
The proposals, which will be considered by the Council’s Cabinet on 18th July, will, if agreed, see a charge of 20p an hour short stay or £1.00 a day long stay.
The consultation is being carried out by Councillor Jonathan Wallace and Councillor Peter Craig.
“We want to find out what residents feel about the proposals,” said Councillor Wallace. “So we sent out an email consultation form and have had many replies back already.
“Peter Craig is analysing all the replies and is producing a report for council officers to consider.
“We would like people to have their replies in by 12th July. People can email their views to me at j.wallace@libdems.org.uk.”
