Liverpool Council’s chief legal officer has suggested issues like the operation of controversial match day car parks in the north of the city contributed to the damning Max Caller report in 2021.
Last October, the local authority released historical internal audit reports which looked at the operation of car parks by the Beautiful Ideas Company (BICo). BICo was a Community Interest Company with links to a number of city councillors. It was launched in 2014 to manage matchday car parks in north Liverpool used by Liverpool and Everton fans.
The revenue was to be used to help the community. Three Labour councillors were linked to BICo in the past. One acted as a director from 2014 to 2018 and two were advisors.
