It looks like that PDF just has some weird embedded, non-visible 0 characters. If you copy-paste the text of the table or run a pdftotext operation on the page, it reveals a big matrix of zeroes that seem to underlie the table.
Thank you for the feedback. So it just a crappy produced PDF. Love local government.
When I extract the data from the PDF som of the data has a zero appended to it.
