Remember me writing a few days ago about meeting with Prejudices...
Well here is the outcome to my complaint to the council with which I am delighted.
(Steve Hart, TCDC Bylaw Contract Officer) said:
I
have read the officers report and also considered the views submitted by both
yourself and your friend. There is a significant disparity between what was
said by all those involved.
The
Officer involved is employed by a contractor who provides parking control
services to Thames Coromandel District Council. I will be meeting with the
contractor and will pass on your comments. Rather than get involved in who said
what at the time I will firstly withdraw the parking infringement and will ask
the contractor to discuss several issues raised with the officer as I feel it
could have been handled better.
The
key point that was confirmed in the photos provided was that the carpark was
virtually empty at the time. If the car park was full then perhaps there may
have been some merit in trying to accommodate the bus in an alternative
location.
For
this reason I apologise on behalf of Council as there was no
"Inconsiderate Parking" parking offence committed and we discourage
our parking officers (whether contracted or staff) becoming involved in verbal
altercations.
