In response to: Two Car Park U-turns Leaves Us As We Were

To clarify the situation re parking at the council’s Millmead offices for hon freeman and aldermen, we reached the decision to issue a new style pass, rather than asking them to collect a temporary permit each time, because, on review, it is a more efficient and appropriate system.

It is easier for some of the hon freemen and alderman to just display the pass and then make their way into Millmead for a meeting, rather than having to park, go to reception for a permit, go back to their car and then go to the meeting.

It is also a more efficient system in terms of processing and staff time because our reception staff do not have to arrange a temporary permit for each visit.  Also, to confirm, a parking pass is only for council use when hon freeman or aldermen are at day time meetings at our Millmead offices.
