Without knowing the contract, you'd expect the council to pay because there will surely be some level of service/provision agreement within the contract. Whether council tax payers would be happy with this is another thing.
I'm not generally a big fan of council run enterprises but hats off to Barnsley council, they do appear to have made and excellent job of the recent town centre makeover.
