Decision Maker: Officer Decision

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The Council owns and operates a number of public car parks in Ipswich, including Portman Road D Car Park, Ipswich IP1 2BP.

 

The council has received a request from Hewitt Sports Turf to make use of Portman Road D car park for their work vehicles and associated machinery whilst installing the new Ipswich Town Football Club playing surface. They have said they will manage the site during the time period proposed.

 

They will take over the whole car park and will be on site between Sunday 07 May 2023 and Sunday 03 July 2023. Hewitt Sports Turf will pay for the lost income of the bays and the relevant suspension fee.

 

The main alternative would be to not accept their proposal, and not close the car park.
