Dear Sir or Madam
Thank you for your email dated 10 November 2008 regarding the above.
The information you requested regarding the Sharrow Vale permit parking scheme is as follows:
Please note that the Council's financial year operates from 1 April to 31 March. The costs detailed below which are marked with an asterisk (*) have been calculated from the full year costs for the year ending 31 March 2008. All other costs have been calculated by using current year costs.
The costs of operating the scheme are as follows:
Operational Enforcement £133,448
Permit Administration £35,244
PCN Processing £40,360
Supervision & Management £60,774
Maintenance* £51,088
Premises* £9,610
Transport* £10,250
Supplies & Services* £35,545
Central & Departmental Support* £31,947
Total Expenditure £418,266
Pay & Display Income (On Street) £251,550
Pay & Display Income (Off Street) £4,751
Permit Income £100,293
Penalty Charge Income £231,169
Total Income £587,763
The breakdown of income from Residents, Businesses and Visitor Permits is not accounted for separately and therefore this information is not available.
The above income figures do not allow for the costs of establishing the scheme.
It is not possible to provide an answer to your question regarding "the estimate of the overall monetary cost or benefit to residents, businesses and commuters in the zone," as there is no established mechanism to calculate such figures.
I hope this information is useful.
Regards
