Edinburgh school meals, allotments and pitch hire prices increased by council

Charges for school meals, allotments, planning applications and hiring sports facilities in Edinburgh are all set to rise.

Edinburgh Council's fees and charges have been agreed for the year ahead - with the biggest shock a 20 per cent rise in on-street parking, which will be used to fund a freeze on the cost of services used by the city's "most vulnerable" residents.

Most charges will rise by around 11.1% in line with inflation, including those for school meals, allotments, licences, planning applications and filming in parks.
