The signs state that CCTV and ANPR technology 'may be in use' and add: "Breach of any term or condition will result in the driver being liable for a parking charge of £100.
"This is reduced to £60 if paid within 14 days."
Resident Chris Mallory said: "I understand why they've done it as people do park there and walk into town due to town's crazy parking prices - but people who use the shops there but stray innocently will get whacked.
"I think it's going to be a big issue."
The entrance signs at Ravenside Retail Park identify all the businesses at the site, including Pizza Hut.
