Independent Councillors running Malvern Hills District Council have u-turned on their previous policy of providing free electric car charging points in the Priory Road Car Park in Malvern Town Centre.
The charge will be brought in after new replacement charging points are installed in the car park and will be charged at 26 pence per kWh. Car parking charges from ticket machines for electric car users would remain the same. Electric car users would have to pay more to use the District Council's car park when charging their car than people using higher polluting diesel or petrol cars.
Our West Worcestershire Liberal Democrat Councillors and activists are spending the weekend working with fellow Lib Dems across the county. Thanks the the Association of Liberal Democrat Councillors our members have been able to team up with people across the county to work together in preparation for the 2021 county council elections.
Working with former MP and County Councillor Tessa Munt and Walsall North Parliamentary Candidate for 2019 Jennifer Gray, our Worcestershire Lib Dem crew have been working hard to make sure we can help our local residents and drive forward the change we need in the county.
We might not be able to get together in person but we can still Zoom along nicely!
