I wouldn't even be so sure there is a "problem". One or two people
complaining about not being able to park may well constitute "strong
representations" if you look at it from the point of view of a
council desperate to increase revenue. I don't think there has ever
been a "parking problem" in Crouch End. Of course there might be
times and places where people can't park in front of their houses but
for goodness sake we're more or less in Inner London not in some
sprawling suburb.

Julian
