Chatham Debenhams closure?
Quite clearly Debenhams in Chatham High Street will close in the immediate future. The loss of rate income to Medway Council will be substantial, possibly even more than the value of the car parking charges extracted by the council. Since car parking charges must be one of the factors keeping potential customers away from Debenhams, is this yet another own goal achieved by Medway Council?
