Current guidance doesn't rule out Point Places for any named parking that doesn't qualify for an Area Place. Is the desire to change that so that more parking can be marked with Areas?
If we add an exception so that some private, dedicated parking places are OK as Area Places (but not others?), it will make the fundamental "general purpose for the general public" principles harder to express and defend. Exceptions weaken principles, and the more exceptions the weaker the principle. But maybe there would be a way to capture and articulate it so it isn't an exception.
I believe Alan referred some weeks ago to pending functionality that would involve parking. This may all be moot. Perhaps the discussion should wait...
