I am writing to you to register my opposition to the introduction of a new controlled parking zone in North Dulwich. I hope that as my local ward councillors you can help to ensure that residents do not have this imposed on us against our wishes.
My family lives on Danecroft Road. We own one car and rarely are we not able to park directly in front of our house. We never have difficulty parking within a reasonable distance of our house.
I do not want to leap to assumptions about the Council's motives. However the consultation issued by the Council was so loaded in favour of introducing a CPZ, I do wonder whether this is a fairly blatant attempt to introduce a tax on parking by the back door.
A CPZ is simply not necessary in this area; it will impose unnecessary cost and regulation on residents at a time when many people are struggling with their personal finances. And frankly, the infrastructure that goes with a CPZ is ugly - horrible lines on streets, parking signs and pay and display ticket boxes. We have a lovely, well kept neighbourhood - please help us keep it that way.
I would be grateful if you could let me know if you will be taking action to oppose the introduction of this CPZ on behalf of North Dulwich residents.
Many thanks
