Please sign this petition and let the Council know how this will affect you.
Nailsworth is a place with a great variety of independent shops where you can pick up most things, meet up with friends, have a quick coffee. Free parking is significant factor in choosing to pop into Nailsworth.
The loss of our Banks has had a negative impact and a significant number of shops are struggling. Any further decrease in customers is seen as the nail in the coffin by a lot of shop owners.
If parking fees are introduced, neighbouring roads, the doctor's surgery, Morrisions, etc, will see an increase in people using their spaces which will cause a lot of issues.
The Council needs to raise money and see Parking Charges as an easy win. They need to know what people think and should consider the negative aspects of this change.
