Off-street car parks
Allerdale Policy
The Council provides and maintains public off-street
car parks in each of the towns of the Borough to ensure a safe and
sufficient parking amenity to meet the needs of the local
community, local economy, businesses and visitors.
It is the policy of the Council to charge for parking where it
is economic to do so, and to apply different levels of charges
according to the needs and the economy of each area. The council
also holds responsibility for the enforcement of On-Street regulations.
The purpose of charges is to enhance the utility of each parking
place, so as to provide the maximum number of parking
"opportunities" in each Town - commensurate with the needs of the
community, businesses and motorists, at no cost to the council tax
payer if possible.
All car parks are strictly but fairly regulated. It is Council
policy to penalise all improper use, or abuse, of it's limited
parking facilities to seek to ensure compliance, and maximum
availability of limited resources for other users.
