Spot the difference.

At the moment my road has parking restrictions from 12pm to 2pm, the local council will make this 6am to 6pm.
I want to object to this because :-
1) It is not needed at 10 am today there were 3 parking places near my house
2) I teach languages from home so may lose customers, this could be quite expensive for me.
3) When we have friends or family round it will cost money

4) The council says we need this because of new restaurants near us, but when they gave permission for these, we were told that our parking would not be affected, so they lied.

Any helpful responses? I know it is unlikely that anything will happen, but has anyone ever tried to stop this?

As above you need to (a) respond formally to any consultation and (b) speak to your elected councillor.

Stick to the facts; the extent to which parking is actually a problem, or rather not a problem at the moment. The current restriction in middle of day suggests it's to deter commuter parking - if so say so and explain that this is main problem and it's contained by existing restriction. Illustrate your argument with photographs and counts of vehicles parked/available spaces during proposed additional hours. If you think the council's argument about new developments don't stack up or are contradictory explain why.

Explain the potential impact on your wife's business. What are alternatives for her customers, what cost or inconvenience might they otherwise suffer and how might those deter them?

Mention the burden of additional cost for yourself and bona fide visitors to your home.

Avoid accusations against the council and in particular the line that they're only doing it to make money - those get you nowhere.
