North Somerset Council faces legal scrutiny after an administrative error in its parking charge consultation led to a High Court challenge. The council introduced new parking fees across three Clevedon town centre car parks on June 1. Although a public consultation was conducted as required, incorrect reference details were provided, rendering responses invalid. Local shopkeeper Daniel Adams, owner of Stationery House on the Triangle, had submitted two objections during the consultation.
