Figures obtained by RTÉ News show that Dublin City Council took in nearly €30m from parking, with €4.3 million collected from clamping 56,000 vehicles.
BUT…
Dublin City Council Parking Enforcement Officer Eithne Gibbons said parking management is not just about raising revenue.”The management of parking is very important in a busy urban centre like Dublin. People drive into the city expecting to be able to get near to where they want to conduct their business and as part of the parking regime we try to ensure that there are spaces when they arrive in to the City,” she said.
Sounds fair.
FIGHT!
