A man has vowed to pack his bags after his local council moved his parking space half-a-mile from his home.
Matt Clubb is so angry at the prospect of leaving his car in a seven-floor multi-storey he says he will move.
The digital portfolio manager claims Chatham, Kent, isn't safe enough after dark to walk alone - and would rather leave the town all together than accept the new spot.
The resident only agreed to move in four years ago because the tenancy came with free parking yards from his door.
But now he will have to walk to and from the busy Pentagon shopping centre if he wants to use his car.
The motorist even offered to pay for a residents' parking space nearby but was told that wasn't possible.
He had lived at the two-bedroom flat at Imperial Gate since 2018 but his stay in Chatham may be coming to an end.
Mr Clubb told KentOnline that he would rather find a new property than do the big trip twice a day.
He told the publication: "I am now having to find a new home as I cannot be walking at night half-a-mile to my car.
"Chatham is not safe in the day, let alone at night.
"The permits office response is always the same, they are required to provide parking but no stipulation as to how far away it is."
A spokesman for Medway Council said: "We are currently looking into the resident’s complaint.
"It would be inappropriate for us to comment whilst we’re looking into this matter."
It's not the only parking problem to arise in recent weeks.
A livid granddad says he will have to pay £12.50 every time he leaves his driveway as an Ultra Low Emission Zone is expanded to his area.
Paul Savage, 77, has hit out at Mayor of London Sadiq Khan’s plans to expand the 'ULEZ' to his home borough of Harrow, calling it “frustrating” as he says he he will now have to pay £12.50 any time he wants to leave his home by car.
Paul said: “As soon as I come out of my drive I’ll have to pay £12.50.
"I’m retired so I don’t need a car very often but I am going to have to get a smaller one.”
The charge will affect other members of Paul's family, including his grandchildren, who will now have to go to school by public transport - and he said local people can do nothing to stop the charge.
