Hi. Sorry to rays this one yet again , but it is a different query. One of
our local councils has a policy of marking disabled parking spaces outside
houses where a resident has a Blue Badge, if they are requested to do so.
In one area local residents have presented a petition asking for the bay to
be removed and the council is minded to meet the request. I would have
thought that the DED (with reference to treating a disabled person more
favourably) would cover this situation.
Can anyone tell me if they have come across anything similar and what the
policy of their local council is?
Many thanks.
