პეტიცია მიმართულია: Port Phillip City Council

We, the undersigned residents of Port Phillip, call on the City of Port Phillip Council to protect existing residents’ access to on-street parking by (a) issuing resident permit parking and (b) excluding the Barak Beacon redevelopment from eligibility for Council-issued resident parking permits.
The Barak Beacon site is being redeveloped by the Victorian Labor Government into a large high-density housing complex. This project has already caused severe parking disruption across Garden City, with construction workers occupying most available street spaces and creating congestion and access issues for long-term residents.

The problem will become far worse when the redevelopment is completed. Hundreds of new residents will compete for already limited street parking, and the situation will be compounded by the Fishermans Bend urban renewal area, which will bring further high-density development and traffic into the same precinct.

Additionally, the new school on Williamstown rd will add daily traffic and parking pressure on Garden City’s residential streets, an area never designed to accommodate this level of demand.

We therefore request that the Council:
1. Implement residential parking permits in the Garden City area
2. Ensure the residential parking permit boundaries exclude all new addresses created within the Barak Beacon redevelopment.
3. Confirm publicly that new tenants or owners within the Barak Beacon project will not be eligible for local resident parking permits.
4. Enforce construction parking management plans to prevent workers from occupying residential streets within Garden City.
5. Develop a coordinated parking strategy that accounts for the cumulative impact of the Barak Beacon redevelopment, Fishermans Bend growth, and the new school.
