Organisers of Remembrance Day parades could have to pay £40 for road closures under the plansRemembrance Day parades, street parties and other events in Shropshire could have to pay for temporary road closures under council plans.Registered charities would be exempt and councillor Richard Marshall said the fees should not be an "unwarranted deterrent"."In perpetuity, the people we are there to represent and remember on Remembrance Day have already paid.
Other non-commercial groups would have to pay from £40-£590, depending on the size of the event and commercial organisations from £145-£1,480. The plans will be discussed by the authority's cabinet on Wednesday and include a list of events in Shropshire including Cosford Air Show, several 10K runs and Oswestry Food and Drink Festival.
"Really it's raising money for charity, thousands but technically it is a commercial event. So when you sign up for the run and pay your fee, that fee is probably going to have to go up," he said.
