The council presidents defended plans to spend several hundred thousand pounds to replace brands in the parliamentary parking lots after criticism from opposition leaders.
The North Yorkshire Council is scheduled to spend more than two million pounds to improve car parks around the province.
A report on the work said that the improvements included the replacement of banners, which were installed by the former region council and the boycott when they run parking, at a cost of 400,000 pounds.
An additional 400,000 pounds has been set for use to improve lighting in parking lots.
The leader of the Green Party Group, Counselor Kevin Foster, this week raised concerns about the level of spending while power is forced to use funds from its reserves to balance its budget.
“I am very concerned that the council is considering using 400,000 pounds from organizing the regulation of the local government on the parking lots that include all machines.
I agree that lighting must be seen because the integrity of the population must be a priority.
“I just hope that some money will not spend on replacing the new logo on the signs presented in the new council.”
The Cler Foster said he had previously urged the authority to replace the slogan of the previous local authorities only with a brand for the new authority when the elements need to replace them.
In response, the executive member of the North Yorkshire Council for fast roads and transportation, Counselor Ken Dunkan, said that the investment of more than two million pounds in the parking lots of 176 for power “affects the need.”
He added: “This will include the installation of 430 new parking machines to facilitate its use of customers and more efficient.
“It will reduce the costs by making parking lots without papers and ensuring that each machine in the province can accept the card, criticism and application.
“We also invest 400,000 pounds for lighting upgrade in parking lots. This will make the lights more reliable, and savings savings on energy costs and improve safety.
“We will also seek to provide 345 updated marks with equipment. This is not an optional exercise for the brand rename – it is a legal condition after the creation of the new council.
“While we must update the signs, we seek to do this by reducing costs as much as we can.”
CLR DUNCAN said the initial cost of 400,000 pounds expected for new banners had been reviewed to about 270,000 pounds, which said on average at 783 pounds sterling for the brand.
