IS the council intending to ensure that York's streets and car parks are made safer at night for the many vulnerable pensioners and single women who will use them? The proposed parking regulations will force them to walk extra distances from dimly lit car parks.

The double yellow lining and parking meters for the city centre are a disgrace.

I was under the impression that the council was elected to serve the people. It is about time we reclaimed the streets of York before it is too late.

Come to the meeting in The Guildhall tomorrow at 2pm and make your concerns felt.
