HAVING just seen for myself our dedicated parking wardens in action, issuing parking tickets at 5.57pm, when parking is free from 6pm, behind the Excel Centre.
I think the council should contract them to issue fixed penalty notices to people who fail to clean up after their pets foul the pavements. I am sure they would be equally effective in this area of work and, once that problem is under control, perhaps they could move on and target litter louts.
I think this dedicated workforce could transform our town in next to no time. And, no, I have not received a parking ticket myself!
