    High-vis jackets emblazoned with the words Dublin City Council were draped over each of the driver seats... :mad:
    DUBLIN City Council has denied it authorised free parking for its employees beside the St Stephen's Green shopping centre.
    Six vehicles without parking receipts visible on the dashboard were observed by the Herald in a pay-and-display area on Bow Lane East in Dublin 2.
    High-vis jackets emblazoned with the words Dublin City Council were draped over each of the driver seats. None of the cars had been clamped.
    One of the vehicles had a visitor's permit on display but it appeared out of date.

    Dearest
    A disgruntled member of the public had complained to the Herald that the spaces are "under continuous occupation" by council workers.
    At €2.90 per hour, the area is one of the dearest and highest demand parking zones in the capital. The council would be able to earn revenue of about €60,000 a year from the spaces if they were available to shoppers and other city centre visitors.
