1. PETITIONS
1.1 PETITION FOR PARKING RESTRICTIONS - ELPHIN STREET, IVANHOE, EAST OF WATERDALE ROAD
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A petition with ten (10) signatures was received from residents of Elphin Street Ivanhoe on 12 January 2016. The petition prayer is as follows: We, the undersigned, wish hereby to advise Banyule City Council of our support for the introduction of parking restrictions in that part of Elphin Street east of Waterdale Rd; these restrictions being as defined in the Councils Proposed Parking Restrictions Streets Surrounding Ivanhoe Grammar School and currently being implemented. This advice is to be understood as superseding any previous advice which may have been given on this matter by any signatory. At its meeting on 9 June 2015, Council considered a report in relation to the Development Plan for Ivanhoe Grammar School and resolved to implement a 12 month parking restrictions trial following consultation with surrounding residents. Residents of 16 streets identified in the resolution were consulted in September 2015, the survey results indicated that a majority of the respondents in Elphin Street, Ivanhoe, east of Waterdale Road wished to retain the existing unrestricted parking. Subsequently the residents were advised that Elphin Street would not be included in the 12 month trial of area wide 2-hour parking restrictions. Following submission of this petition, the residents preferences have been reviewed. As the majority of respondents in this section of the street now wish to be included in the trial, parking restrictions have been installed consistent with the parking restriction trial in other streets surrounding Ivanhoe Grammar School.
Resolution (CO2016/2)
That Council:
1. Receives and notes the petition. 2. Notes that Elphin Street, Ivanhoe, east of Waterdale Road has now been included in
the 12 month trial of area wide 2-hour parking restrictions and appropriate signs have been installed.
3. Advises the primary petitioner of the Council resolution regarding this matter.
