OD/21/129 Portman Road A Car Park Hire

Decision Maker: Officer Decision

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The Council owns and operates several public car parks in Ipswich, including the Portman Road A Car Park located on Portman Road, Ipswich.

 

The Council has received a request from Ipswich Town Football Club to have exclusive use of this car park on Tuesday 5 April 2022. This car park is already exclusively hired by the football club on every home matchday.

 

This request has been submitted because the football club is hosting an Under 23s match and a wake with 250 guests on the same day. Since the Covid pandemic, this car park has rarely been at full capacity and the other car parks in Portman Road will be able to accommodate other customers who wish to park.

Decision:

To utilise the powers within the Ipswich Borough Council (Off-Street Parking Places) Order 2020 to close Portman Road A Car Park to the general public on Tuesday 5 April 2022.

 

Reason:

To allow Ipswich Town FC to have exclusive use of the car park.
