If your business is located in a residents parking zone, you may be entitled to apply for a Business Permit. Business permits are not applicable in Baldock Zone A.
Only one business permit per small business may be issued. The business may apply for the permit to be valid for up to two operational vehicles. The permit can only be used in one of the operational vehicles at any time.
The cost of a business permit is £84.00 for 12 months or £42.00 for 6 month.
Eligibility
To be eligible for a business permit the vehicle must be an operational vehicle owned by the small business:
- "Small Business" means a trade or profession whose floor space is 235 square metres or less and has a postal address.
- An "Operational Vehicle" means a vehicle not exceeding 3.5 tonnes gross laden weight, owned and operated by a business for the explicit use of making deliveries, collections, servicing or such other business activity as the Council shall consider and approve.
- If the vehicle/s are owned by you as an individual and not the business you will need supply evidence that you own the business.
