It's basically owned and run the the local authority. Their car parking charges are **high**. An enterprising family set up an off airport parking business on their own land, secure, taxi to airport, valet service and about 50-75% of the cost of the on airport parking. It went really well for a couple of years...<br /><br />Then they were hit with legal measures because of 'change of use', inspections, all sorts, it became clear they weren't going to be allowed to rest. So they moved to a different site further from the airport. There were similar issues and the business finally folder a year later.Steve Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16515692806214127465noreply@blogger.com
