A further report to me next Thursday relates to our Parking Services: http://eservices.solihull.gov.uk/mgInternet/documents/s81008/Parking%20Services%20COVID19%20Update.pdf
The report mentions the rational for suspending all parking charges on 20 April and the report seeks a formal decision to continue with the suspension for the time being (to be reviewed at a further decision making session).
We are not going to rush back parking charges. Yes, they contribute a sizeable amount to the councils expenditure but we need to ensure we have a safe environment for parking our vehicles and also ensure we help our shops when they reopen.
