    All Town and Parish Council Clerks Your ref: Via Email Our ref: Enquiries to: Budget Consultation Email: [email protected] Tel direct: (0345) 600 6400 Date: 23 November 2018 Dear Clerk Consultation on Car Parking Charges at Selected Coastal and Railway Car Parks I refer to the email from Cllr Glen Sanderson, Cabinet Member for Environment & Local Services dated 7th November 2018, in which he informed you of the Council's latest investment plans for improvements to parking that will result in hundreds of new parking spaces being created across Northumberland as the council continues its £10 million pound programme of traffic improvements. In his email Cllr Sanderson also highlighted that in order to help fund these raft of improvements and address other budget pressures the Cabinet were considering proposals to reintroduce charges at a number of the busier tourism and railway station car parks at their meeting on Tuesday 13th November 2018. I can now confirm that Cabinet gave their approval to undertake consultation on the introduction of charges at the most heavily used tourist/visitor and railway car parks. Details of the car parks affected by the proposals and the proposed tariffs at these car parks are listed in Tables 1 to 3 appended to this letter. A full copy of the Cabinet report that sets out the wider investment plans and details of the charges can be found on the NCC website at http://committee.northumberland.gov.uk/Meeting.aspx?MeetID=9119 It is considered that the introduction of charges at these busy car parks will help manage demand, make the maintenance and management of parking services more financially sustainable and generate income that will assist in financing future investment in parking services, whilst at the same time help safeguard key front-line services that ensure the county remains an attractive place to live, work in or visit.
