Hot topic of the month...!

Parking... you may have received notice today that the car park will be chargeable from 1st April 2006 at a rate of £730+vat per space (initially restricted to one per office). What are your views on this? There seems to be some cloaked reasoning that these charges will be levied due to increased security because people have been complaining about vehicles being vandalised. Why does it take the management so long to react to vehicles which appear to be nothing to do with resident businesses being left for prolonged periods or being dumped in the car park, have they not realised that these have attracted the thieves/vandals in the first place? Also the boundary fences have "gaps" where 'vandals' can easily access the car park even when locked. What about the array of cameras? Have these vandals not been recorded?

    Before anybody says anything I want to make the parking of our company vehicles clear.

    Orbital, situated in G8, is a new Private Hire/Taxi in which all of the vehicles are Electric. We have kindly asked to also rent 2 spaces at the front of the building - which has been granted so as they can be re-charged at night.

    When we are ready to operate we would like to offer all of our neighbours at Waterfront some discounted journeys.

    Orbital is cleaner, cheaper, and greener.

    Watch this space.

    Why not boycott the car park? The management would soon have to change their stance or come up with a better policy if everyone did this!

    Have you noticed how strange it is that some people (read L reg. Ford Fiesta) can afford 730+vat to park their car but do not appear to have afforded road tax since 2003?
