It goes to battle with the life blood of the economy and shows Lewes is going to try and take back control. Yes, time could be spent campaigning for or against many other things (especially to get rid of the parking scheme), but how much effect does any campaigning really have beyond allowing a few bureaucrats to tick the 'consultation' box? Sadly money is at the root of all government - give control of the money to Lewes and Lewes can decide it's own priorities, to the benefit of all residents and businesses. Localisation.
