"That this council discuses the issue of clamping at Citywest Quarter where residents are being routinely clamped because of lack of carpark spaces - I have been contacted by a resident who has been clamped serval times in the past couple weeks (125 removal fee, 50 added on for any additional days). Residents have been told underground carpark is full, and they will be put on a list without any timeframe of when or how the issue will be resolved. This includes HAP tenants, and people who are already being squeezed by cost of living crisis - additional fees like such are causing an impact. Can the manager report on the number of car parking spaces in the planning permission and any related issues?"
