This decision is urgent as it reflects the
current crises. The decision is being made to ensure that social
distancing measures are implemented and also to protect staff from
collecting cash and cleaning potentially infected areas.
There is a significant financial implication in not charging in car
parks. This is around £260k per month. However, most Councils
are either not charging or not enforcing.
Even if we carried on charging, income would be down as shops are
shut and people are isolating.
