Cleopatra Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hum... another consultation. Do you think the council will really take notice or are these consultations just an excercise to make the people believe that they are being listened to while the council still goes ahead and does what it wants to do as usual?

inky pete Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 It's an exercise in legal compliance, nothing more. The council are legally obliged to carry out consultations on certain matters so they make their decision, then consult, then throw the results of the consultation in the bin and carry on regardless.

Lt Kije Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Have you worked for the council long inky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inky pete Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I've been forced to be one of their customers for a VERY long time. Still waiting for anything approaching value for money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Don't really understand why Warrington charge for off street parking and are considering charging for on street parking and are supposedly running at a loss. Go up the road to Widnes and you can park on the road and off the road for free. So who's got it right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky71 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 It's free to park in Widnes for a simple reason-there is a limited range of shops. Although it has got better in the last year or so. Same goes for Runcorn and Northwich. Is it really that bad to park in Warrington? You can park in the multi-storey for £2-40 for 4 hours. You won't even get wet, and a lift down to the very heart of the shops. You can park on the "bomb-site" on Winwick St for £2-20 all day. You can even park for free for a quick visit if you know where to look, eg Bewsey St, Sankey St, Museum St, Palmyra Sq, Riverside etc. It's even free on Sundays and Thursday evening. You have to pay in Wigan on Sundays. Blackpool is £7-00 for 4 hours every day. Chester is astronomical, that's if you can get anywhere near the centre.
