A proposal to lift penalty charge from £60 to £100 will go before councillors later this week, writes Drew Sandelands.
A proposal to lift the penalty charge notice for contraventions of parking restrictions from £60 to £100 will go before councillors for approval this week. Fines would be reduced to £50 if paid by drivers within the first 14 days.
Council officials reported the service has been operating at a loss with “a deficit of £87,224, £138,672 and £71,122 in the financial years 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22 respectively”.

Currently, the £60 fine, reduced to £30 if paid within the first 14 days, aligns with guidance from Scottish ministers in 2001. Council officials stated: “Implementing the higher level of PCNs could assist with reducing the financial losses, in turn reducing the burden on ERC’s budgets and improving ERC’s ability to deliver, sustain or improve local transport provision.”
