## Resource

West Lothian launches county-wide parking charges consultation, aiming for mid-2028 rollout. Decriminalised parking enforcement (DPE) proposed, with options for council-hired wardens or contracting out. DPE shifts parking tickets to civil matters, keeping penalty cash for road funding. Consultation seeks public input on charge spots, enforcement zones, and hourly rates, with a projected self-financing model. Questionnaire available until July third.
