Recreation Ground Road Car Park, Tenterden
The car park in Recreation Ground Road, Tenterden will be losing more than 50 car parking spaces from a total of 257 with immediate effect. The car park is partly owned by Ashford Borough Council, and the council has, until recently, leased the top section, which comprises 57 spaces, from Zetbova Investments Limited to increase the available car parking.
However, negotiations to renew the lease for the 57 spaces at a financially viable rate have not been successful and Ashford Borough Council has, at Zetbova Investments solicitor’s request, erected barriers between its land and that of the landlord and taken the ticket machine out of use.
“We apologise for the inconvenience caused to our car park customers and will continue to try to negotiate the reinstatement of the car parking spaces,” said Ashford Borough Council Business Manager, Kirsty Hogarth.
