Fight the parking meter hike & support our Lower Hutt CBD retailers
The Lower Hutt City Council are considering yet another parking meter price rise in the CBD and on the surface it might not seem too onerous a rise from $2 to $3. However the retailers in the High St/Queens Dr area deserve better treatment from our elected officials. Westfield offers free parking and an increase of any amount will be yet another disincentive for shoppers to shop in the CBD. If you are a Lower Hutt resident I strongly urge that you contact your local Hutt City Council Counsillor and voice your disapproval (I have).

It looks like the Hutt News got their story wrong! The HCC are not thinking about doing this at all. My apologies to the HCC.
