According to the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), a report to a council committee said the extended deal will generate a “guaranteed” income for Hillsborough Park Charity – which promotes the maintenance of the park.
Members also agreed to increase the hourly cost of pay and display for Hillsborough, Graves and Endcliffe parks from £1 an hour to £1.10.
This is in line with a recent car park charges review and is the same rate as now charged by the council outside the city centre.
The income is retained by the charitable trusts that own the parks and is used for upkeep and maintenance.
Councillor Matt Smith said he was keen to see the fees kept as low as possible, given the cost of living crisis, adding that a 10% rise would be “a little bit much”.
