I do not see why as a council tax payer I should pay for unnecessary work.
Personally, I think that if the Council chooses to allow parking on the pavement it should lower the kerb.
I agree with the second bit. But how, as a council tax payer, do you define 'unnecessary'? Is it absolutely necessary to put speed bumps and speed cameras on roads? I'm sure we'd all get by without them.
Anyway, it's probably just me, but the two sentences from Sherwood seem to say two different things, so I'm not sure if we agree or not!
