Car parking enforcement seems to have been in limbo since the Government decided a couple of years ago to transfer responsibility to councils from the police. There certainly seems to have been little evidence of enforcement in Dronfield recently as the government have delayed the actual transfer. But at last a date has been set [again!]. Derbyshire County Council will take over responsibility for parking enforcement on the County’s streets and car parks from Thursday 19 February 2009.

The council has appointed APCOA to patrol the County’s streets and car parks, doing the work previously done by police traffic wardens. 

From 19 February there will be more parking officers out and about than ever before.  So if you park where you should not then it’s likely that you’ll get a ticket.  

I certainly hope that the company employed is more careful than the company who threatened to take me to court for non payment of a fine [with a very intimidating letter] last year. Only after I was able to prove [by chance] that I had CCTV evidence showing I was 50 miles away at the time did they decide they must have taken down the wrong registration number.
