An online petition addressed to the Isle of Wight Council has been launched in protest at the plans to introduce parking charges at Appley Park car park.
Set up by Tony Gibbs of Brading, the petition states,
This land was gifted to the people to enjoy FREE of charge so stop the proposed council car park charges now.
It calls on the Isle of Wight council to simply,
Leave Appley Car Park Alone!
Budget deficit
