Background
From 17 June to 5 July 2024, we consulted our community on the proposed removal of the on-street parking along Kildare Street, Hawthorn, between Barkers Road and Harcourt Street.
We invited residents and property owners had a frontage onto Kildare Street, between Barkers Road and Harcourt Street to participate in this consultation. We thank everyone who provided feedback on the proposed changes.
What we asked
We asked for your feedback on the proposal to introduce a permanent 'No Stopping' parking restriction on the west side of Kildare Street (between Barkers Road and Harcourt Street).
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 responses from a suffficent number of eligible community members.
- 25% supported the proposed changes to the parking restrictions.
- 75% opposed the proposed changes to the parking restrictions.
In accordance with our Parking Management Policy, we will change the parking restrictions only if 55% or more of all eligible responses support the proposed changes.
What happens next
As the proposed changes are not supported by at least 55% of participants, there will be no change to the existing parking restrictions.
