Your workplace does not have a parking area for cars, and it is causing some problems. Write a letter to your manager and include the following: – Describe the problems it has caused. – Explain what benefits a parking area would bring to the company. – Suggest a solution.

I am Robinson Crew, the new asset manager who recently joined your company. I am writing to let you know that our unit doesn't have a dedicated parking
space
for our
staff
members,
while
other units do, which is really inconvenient on a daily basis. Parking every day at the public parking which is located 2km away from the office costs 900$ per month for each of our
staff
members and it takes

waste of time for them to reach the office. Let me explain the advantages of a designated parking
space
.
Firstly
, it could help to save money spent on public parking
while
improving the punctuality of our
staff
.
Secondly
, the designated
space
will be free from theft and other incidents
due to
the fact that it is only reserved for our members.
In addition
, the designated
space
is legally enforced to be continuously monitored by security cameras which could provide evidence, if any incidents happen causing potential damage to the vehicles which isn't the case in public parking. The church near our office is a safe
space
for our
staff
to park and a monthly payment which is cheaper than the public parking might help to maintain the infrastructure of the area which is currently being used for practising dance and music for children from kindergarten. I hope you will consider my suggestion positively. Thanks again for your kind consideration Thanks, Robinson

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
