About this consultation
From 31 July to 19 August we consulted our community on the proposal to introdue 2-hour (2P) parking restrictions within Deanlea Court, Hawthorn East.
We invited residents, property owners and people who are eligible for a residential parking permit to participate in this consultation. Thank you to those who provided feedback on the proposed change.
What we asked
We asked for your feedback on the proposal to introduce:
- 2-hour (2P) parking restrictions between 8 am and 6 pm Monday to Friday within Deanlea Court.
Changes to parking restrictions are made if:
- we receive feedback from at least 10% of people invited to share their feedback, and
- 55% support the proposed changes.
What we heard
We received feedback from an insufficient number of community members during the consultation process.
Inspections of Deanlea Court also indicate lower parking demands are occurring in recent times, possibly due to the closure of the nearby University of Melbourne Hawthorn Campus.
What happens next
In accordance with our Parking Management Policy, we will change the parking restrictions if 55% or more of all eligible responses show support for the proposed changes.
With a low response to the consultation and indications that the parking demands have reduced, we will not be making changes to the parking restrictions in Deanlea Court at this time.
This situation can be reviewed should parking demands in Deanlea Court change in the future and a further request for change is made.
