Seaton needs every resident and visitor it can get to visit the town centre and esplanade.
Seaton is not a Sidmouth or an Exmouth - it is a town with businesses in dire need of help. There are already parking time limits on the streets in question, so this idea is strictly for raising revenue for the county council.
For a pound, one can park all day at the Holmbush and Charmouth Road car parks in Lyme Regis, where one can also park on the street free.
Visitors will go to Lyme instead of Seaton and spend their money there.
