Parking charges at Eastbourne council-run car parks have brought in thousands of pounds to council coffers.
The authority said it made a surplus from charging motorists to park.
In 2019-2020 the authority collected £275,350 compared to £241,837 the previous year and £296,802 in 2018/2019.
Car parks the council runs include parts of Hyde Gardens, Beachy Head, Junction Road, Fisherman’s Green, Redoubt, Devonshire Park and Congress and the Wish Tower.
