Cost recovery kinda sounds like people who have been parking their cars in front of their houses for free now have to pay. For residential parking. Which is charging for residential street parking.
Sure, it's for parking in permitted zones of residential street parking if you happen to live in the zone, but that's still charging for residential street parking.
If your argument is that it's fine to charge people living inner city on streets that are permit only for residential street parking, that's fine. Everyone entitled to an opinion on charging for residential street parking. But it's still charging for residential street parking.
