Parking petition

Gosford Council has received a petition containing more than 1200 signatures requesting the cessation of parking tickets in and around the Woy Woy CBD.

Petitioners have called on council to cease the issuing of parking tickets and cancel the ones already issued until the Woy Woy Commuter Car Park expansion works are completed.

"They claim that the removal of car spaces has caused a lot of parking problems for commuters," according to a council staff report.

"They also state that they had been parking in the back streets for over 10 years without being issued any tickets and request that council be consistent in its actions."

The report stated that the petition had been noted by council.
