Parking permit application

Application for Precinct Parking Permits

Residents living on a street with timed parking are entitled to one free parking permit.

Additional permits can be requested with a $55 fee, granted upon reasonable grounds. If your additional permit is approved, you will be required to call to make the payment. Once payment is received for the additional permit, please allow at least four working days for collection. Please note that if you wish to pay in person, you will be required to return to collect the permit to allow our team to process and create your permit.

If permits are lost or stolen, a replacement fee of $50 per permit will be charged.

Please allow a minimum of 14 business days for processing of your application.

Permits are valid for 12 months from the date of approval.

*Important

Please note that ratepayers/residents of multiple dwellings are not eligible for parking permits, as per the Town's Parking Policy, which can be found here. The Town suggests residents of these dwellings discuss parking management with their strata manager.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Once approved, permits can be collected during working hours of 8:30 to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday. You can nominate someone to collect your permit on your behalf (ID will be required).

The permit will expire one year after approval, for example, if the permit is approved on 31.08.2023 it will expire on 31.08.2024

The duration is set by Council each year as part of the annual budget process. Therefore 12 months is appropriate.

The high demand for parking has been identified as an issue in the Town and in particular the town centre and surrounding streets. 

Setting a fee for parking permits improves the management of the service as it encourages only those who require a permit to apply for one. 

The fee also offsets part of the administration costs associated with processing, patrolling, and signage associated.

The temporary parking permits we have in place for The Grove development will remain free (residents can have two in total).

These permits will have a set expiration of June 2024 when we expect the build to be completed. 

Prior to the the build being completed the Town will be conducting a survey for residents on Airlie Street to determine if they would like to make the parking restrictions permanent.
