A man was left fuming after being given a parking ticket outside the house he has lived in since 1981.
David Wright, also known by Ian, has lived in Swanston Avenue for more than 40 years and says he has never had a parking ticket in that time. As his road lies close to Everton's Goodison Park stadium, his property falls within a parking zone which sees local residents given parking permits so they don't get fined.
Mr Wright accepts he may not have renewed his permit, but says he was still shocked to see his car hit with a ticket on the evening of January 3. He said he has never had an issue in the area before and has questioned the timing of his fine as the council tries to make budget savings.
