Parking fees in Coesfeld: Council today decides on reduction!

Coesfeld, Deutschland - The discussion about parking fees in Coesfeld reached a new highlight! After the city increased the fees to 1.80 euros per hour at the beginning of the year, a reduction is now to be decided. The Council today makes a decision on the future amount of fees. The SPD faction proposes a reduction to 1.60 euros to correct the negative image caused by the higher tariffs. They argue that the parking fees could put a strain on retail.

The CDU calls for a more drastic reduction to 1.20 euros per hour and also pleads for free parking from 2 p.m. to regain lost customers. In contrast, the Greens want to maintain the high fees in order to create incentives for alternative means of transport. The city administration soon wants to announce the decision of the council, which arouses great expectations in the population.
