Financial contribution to car park maintenance
Discussion
My mother in law has lived in the same house since it was built in the late 60’s/early 70’s.
They bought it from new.
It backs on to a car parking area/access to other addresses. She has no car parking space allocated.
The road surface had deteriorated, crumbled and had become a hazard to anyone walking across it.
Recently, it was resurfaced.
She’s had an invoice from the council asking her for a £700+ contribution to the costs of the resurfacing.
Is she liable for any costs? How should we approach the council with a view to telling them where to stick their invoice?
What, in short, do we need to know?
