Title

Public Domain Parking Policy

Summary

This Policy provides a governing framework for the

investigation, development, implementation and ongoing

management of parking schemes and controls in the public

domain including on-street and in council managed carparks.

Background

The demand for on-street parking across the Inner West often

exceeds available supply. Demand is often generated from

competing needs or different road users. Parking schemes

and controls are developed to better manage excessive

demand and to balance competing demands for parking

space.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

1. PURPOSE

Parking in the public domain across the Inner West is often in very high demand. To better

manage and balance the competing demands for parking space, parking restrictions involving

time of operation, duration, type of parking, prohibition of parking or other parking controls are

often implemented supporting specific land uses or functions. Time limits help to ensure

parking turnover in shopping precincts, limit commuter parking in residential neighbourhoods

and encourage alternative forms of sustainable transport use.

The purpose of this Policy is to provide a governing framework for the investigation,

development, implementation and ongoing management of public domain parking schemes

and controls.

2. OBJECTIVES

The objectives of this policy are to:

a) Contribute to road safety outcomes.

b) Manage public spaces in the public interest.

c) Protect and enhance the liveability of neighbourhoods.

d) Support the Integrated Transport Strategy of Council

e) Support sustainability, inclusion and environmental objectives of the Council.

f) Support public domain planning initiatives of Council.

g) Improve the parking amenity for particular categories of road user.

h) Contribute to the fair, transparent and consistent management of parking demand and

the competition for on-street parking space.

i) Achieve compliance with the regulatory framework governing parking.

3. SCOPE

The Policy applies to all forms of public domain parking regulation within the authority of the

Inner West Council including on-street parking and council managed carparks. Parking controls

on State Classified Roads require the approval of the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS).

Council’s Development Control Plan addresses development related off-street/ onsite parking

provisions.

Strategic Direction 2: Unique, liveable, networked neighbourhoods.

6. POLICY STATEMENT

The sustainability and efficiency of the transport network is crucial to the liveability and

prosperity of the Inner West. Key to congestion management, urban planning and liveability

strategies are the promotion of public transport usage, encouragement of alternative forms of

active transport such as walking and cycling and encouraging a reduction in the dependency

on private car ownership and use. Parking policy and strategies are some of the tools available

to Council and the community to help realise these objectives, balanced with the local needs

for mobility, access and equity.

Parking schemes and strategies will be developed to align with this Policy.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

7. POLICY

7.1 Principles for Parking Management

Principles to guide the development and implementation of parking controls include:

7.1.1 Public Access & Safety

Council will use parking controls that recognise that streets are public spaces, open to all people,

and are to be managed in the public interest. Accordingly:

 Parking controls will support road safety outcomes.

 Parking permits do not guarantee access to a parking space.

 No areas are set aside exclusively for permit parking.

 Parking Schemes should provide an equitable and/or appropriate mix of on-street spaces for

road users.

 Exemptions to parking restrictions should not obstruct short-term access by legitimate users

to recreational, cultural and community facilities.

7.1.2 Liveability

In order to protect and enhance the liveability of neighbourhoods Council will prioritise the

equitable use of parking space for residents, businesses, their visitors and customers by:

 Providing parking schemes to better cope with extreme demands for on-street parking.

 Discouraging commuter parking on-street in residential and commercial neighbourhoods.

 Avoiding street by street parking changes that move, rather than resolve, parking problems,

that is, guard against ‘knock-on’ effects.

 Avoiding over-subscription to permit parking schemes. Council will have discretion over the

total number of permits issued within a scheme zone and how it will distribute these permits

across the relevant categories of permits.

7.1.3 Sustainability & Inclusion

Council will prioritise parking controls that support travel by people with mobility disabilities; that

encourage increased use of alternative forms of sustainable transport and active travel; and

support a reduction in car ownership. Parking measures will consider and support:

 integrated transport objectives & strategies

 public domain plans and strategies

 increased use of public transport

 walking and cycling infrastructure needs

 Inclusion Action Plans and provisions for mobility parking

 participation of authorised car-share vehicles

 other relevant Council policies and strategies

Council may use the location, supply, availability, fee structure and management regime for

parking to support the achievement of these outcomes.

7.1.4 Regulation

The management of parking controls is governed by NSW legislation and is administered by

Council on local roads under authority delegated to it by NSW Roads & Maritime Services (RMS).

The administration of parking permits is guided by the “Permit Parking Guidelines” issued by RMS.

This Policy applies that regulatory framework.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

7.1.5 Consistency

Council will endeavour to apply the Policy consistently across all parking areas. At times the

Council may adopt variations from usually adopted parking controls in order to respond to local

conditions.

7.1.6 Pricing

Council may apply fees to recover costs associated with the administration, implementation and

maintenance of parking controls and to support the achievement of other Council policy outcomes.

All proposed fees and charges will be reviewed annually and exhibited in the draft Annual Plan as

required by the Local Government Act.

7.1.7 Consultation

Given the strong community interest in kerbside parking management, the affected community will

be consulted on proposed changes that modify controls, time limits applying to legal parking

spaces or the introduction of parking meters. Where changes to signage are required for safety or

regulatory compliance, Council will notify the nearby community of the change.

Proposals for parking changes will be assessed for technical compliance by the Local Traffic

Committee.

7.2 Commercial and Mixed Use Areas

7.2.1 Parking Priority

In commercial precincts, Council will prioritise parking controls that are consistent with the viability

and efficient operation of local business and encourage the use of active travel and public

transport. This will include priority consideration for the safe movement of pedestrians, the

provision for bus zones, taxi zones, service vehicle zones such as loading zones and mail zones,

bike parking, drop-off and pick up spaces, and mobility parking spaces. Dedicated on-street

spaces for authorised car share vehicles may be provided to use on-street parking spaces more

efficiently and enabling businesses access to a variety of shared vehicles.

Parking controls in and around mixed use or retail premises will encourage turnover that is

consistent with the local business mix and expected duration of stay by customers, typically 2P.

Where cafes and restaurants form a significant local land use, minimum daytime controls of 2P

(from 8am), and evening (after 6pm) controls of 4P would typically apply. Shorter duration parking

controls may be used in cases where local businesses rely on rapid turnover of parking.

7.2.2 Delivery & Service Vehicles

On-street loading zones contribute to economic activity and provide the opportunity to service

multiple properties. Council will prioritise the need for loading zones to ensure commercial,

entertainment and retail premises, without on-site loading or parking facilities, are within 100

metres of a loading zone if required for their business operation. Zones within residential areas to

facilitate household deliveries may also be considered where demand warrants. On-street loading

zones are not provided for exclusive use. Locations will be optimised to maximise their use by

multiple premises.

To accommodate other road users and mitigate extended periods of underutilised kerb space,

loading zones may have limited hours of operation each day, and may be limited to inter-peak or

off-peak operation. Loading zones may be introduced after-hours or on week-ends in cases where

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

weekday loading is inadequate or where it is desirable to encourage out-of-hours/weekend

New developments that have significant service and delivery requirements are generally required

to provide onsite loading bays sufficient for the needs of the land use. Loading zones will generally

not be provided to serve premises with on-site loading docks or the capability to load/unload onsite

or which are subject to development consent conditions requiring all loading and servicing to occur

on-site.

7.2.3 Authorised Vehicle Zones

Authorised vehicle zones may be provided where necessary and feasible for the purposes of

parking essential service and other vehicles such as postal collection, law enforcement, wedding

and funeral services. The allocation of such dedicated space must be demonstrably in the public

interest. The continuation of authorised vehicle zones will be subject to regular review in light of

changing needs and changes to surrounding land use.

7.2.4 Paid Parking

To manage the strong competition for kerbside parking Council operates ticketed parking in the

following areas commercial/ retail areas as at June 2019:

 King Street, Newtown

 Enmore Rd, Newtown

 Lennox Street Carpark, Newtown

 Edgeware Rd Carpark, Enmore

 Norton Street, Leichhardt and adjacent side streets

 Darling Street, Balmain and adjacent side streets.

 Darling Street, Rozelle and adjacent side streets.

Prices will be set at a level consistent with adequate turnover for local business, maintenance of

local economic activity and to provide consistency with adjoining council areas along boundary

streets. Where ticket parking is installed in residential areas, resident permit holders are exempt

from parking fees.

In order to accommodate short stay parking demand associated with minor purchases, 30 minute

free parking is provided in ticketed areas on key retail streets.

Council has resolved not to extend paid on-street parking beyond current installations.

7.2.5 Taxi Zones

The provision of on-street taxi zones will be considered on an ‘as-needed’ basis near land uses

and precincts that generate a demonstrable demand and subject to the concurrence of the NSW

Taxi Council.

7.2.6 ‘No Parking’ Zones

‘No Parking’ zones provide the opportunity for drop-off and pick-up movements and assist in

reducing parking demand and illegal parking manoeuvres in the adjacent areas by providing an

efficient, high turnover, mechanism for very short-term parking needs.

‘No Parking’ zones will be provided to address:

 passenger interchange functions at transport nodes,

 short term delivery, loading & unloading activities,

 school children drop-off and pickup along school frontages,

 passenger drop off and pickup at commercial centres,

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

 Vehicle access constraints,

 Road safety issues.

7.3 Community Facilities

Parking controls adjacent to community, recreational, social and cultural facilities, including

parkland, will aim to provide for turnover that is consistent with their desired use. This includes

allowing for access for those enjoying organised sports, picnics and casual recreation.

Parking controls adjacent such facilities will generally not exempt permit holders during operating

hours. This ensures all-day parking does not obstruct short-term access by a broad cross-section

of the community.

Some community or recreational facilities, including parks, have small street frontages. In these

circumstances, if period parking controls are used, they should be consistent with surrounding

streets to minimise the potential for inadvertent non-compliance.

Time limits near cultural facilities will be reviewed on an as-needs basis to balance the needs of

patrons and the local community.

7.4 Mobility Parking

7.4.1 Purpose

People with disability are often dependent on travel by a private vehicle to maintain their mobility

and independence. The Mobility Parking Scheme is designed to support this outcome. Council will

prioritise on-street parking for this group.

7.4.2 Mobility parking entitlements

Under the Mobility Parking Scheme administered by Roads and Maritime Services, a vehicle

transporting a mobility permit scheme card holder is exempt from parking fees and time limits in

any period parking space of more than 30 minutes. For parking spaces with time limits of 30

minutes a permit holder can park for 2 hours, and where parking is limited to less than 30 minutes,

the vehicle can park for a maximum of 30 minutes.

Holders of Mobility Parking Scheme permits are not required to apply for parking permits.

7.4.3 On-street mobility parking spaces

Signposted mobility parking spaces are provided for the exclusive use of vehicles displaying a

current Mobility Parking Scheme permit.

In considering the provision and location of mobility parking space, Council will consider:

a) likely intensity of use by one or more mobility permit holders;

b) availability and utilisation of nearby on-street mobility parking spaces;

c) proportion of spaces provided for people with disabilities within a parking precinct;

d) availability and utilisation of nearby on-street period parking;

e) availability of reasonable on-site alternatives.

The time of operation of mobility parking spaces may be limited in locations where usage is

dependent on times of operation of particular services and it is important to maintain parking space

utilisation.

7.4.4 On-street mobility parking spaces outside homes

Council may consider establishing a mobility parking space outside a resident’s home where there

is consistent difficulty in finding parking that is accessible within a reasonable distance of the

property, provided:

a) the resident holds a current, individual mobility parking permit issued by the RMS; and

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

b) medical certification is provided confirming the person requires the use of a mobility aid

to walk and/or cannot walk more than 50 metres without detrimentally impacting their

physical condition; and

c) on-site parking space of suitable dimensions and accessibility is not available and cannot

reasonably be provided within the property; and

d) The vehicle used for transport is registered to the resident’s home address.

The space is lawfully available to any vehicle correctly displaying and using a mobility permit and

cannot be dedicated for the exclusive use of any particular vehicle or person(s).

The establishment of the space within a permit parking zone will be in lieu of one entitlement to a

Resident Parking Permit for that property.

A mobility parking space established outside an individual’s home or premises will be considered

for removal if:

 the applicant advises Council the space is no longer required, or

 the applicant no longer resides at the premises, or

 a Council audit confirms the circumstance supporting the initial installation no longer

exists.

Any changes will be the subject of prior notification. Council may conduct periodic audits and seek

documentary evidence to determine whether mobility parking zones outside homes are still

justified.

Council will supply and install signage free of charge. Additional facilities outside an individual’s

home or premise, such as kerb ramps, for use by the applicant in conjunction with the mobility

zones, may be approved subject to installation in accordance with Council’s specification at the

applicant’s cost.

7.5 Angle Parking

Council may consider the introduction of angle parking on local roads which are subjected to high

parking demand. The introduction of angle parking will be subject to the following considerations

and guidelines:

 Ability to provide increased parking capacity in the street considering car overhang

obstructions on the footpath and the location and spacing of driveways.

 Volume of traffic (bi-directional) should not exceed 1000 vehicles per day.

 Sufficient width of road carriageway to safely accommodate traffic movements.

 Street does not form a bus route

 High parking occupancy in the street generally reaching 85% of available parking space over

extended periods.

 Needs of cyclists and pedestrians can be safely accommodated

 Road camber or longitudinal gradient is not excessive

 Impact on or potential damage to streetscape

 Height of kerb to accommodate car overhang

 Housing setback

 Public domain improvement proposals and opportunities.

7.6 Parking Encroachment on Driveways

Parked vehicles encroaching on driveways in areas of high parking demand can often obstruct

access to/from off-street parking spaces. It is an offence under the NSW Road Rules to obstruct

driveways. To mitigate on-going non-compliance with the Road Rule, Council will permit the

painting of lines on the road shoulder/ parking lane to Council’s specification, to better delineate

the extremities of driveways. The lines will not necessarily be used to validate a driveway

obstruction offence. Installation and maintenance will be the responsibility of the property owner/

occupier.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

To prevent a proliferation of street signage, Council will generally not support the isolated

installation of “No Parking” or “No Stopping” signage across driveways to residential property for

the purposes of managing non-compliance with the NSW Road Rules relating to driveway

obstruction.

7.7 Parking in Laneways

Laneways provide connections to adjoining streets; access to properties; vehicular access to off-

street parking; pedestrian and cycle routes; on-street parking opportunities; access by service

vehicles, waste collection and emergency services. Increasingly they provide opportunities for

activation and use as public spaces. The narrow width of many lanes can often generate conflict

between the competing uses of laneways such as parked vehicles obstructing vehicular access

and other laneway uses.

Agreement between affected residents on parking outcomes in residential laneways is preferred

rather than signposting restrictions. However where access issues cannot be resolved Council will

consider implementing appropriate parking restrictions. Parking restrictions will generally be

implemented in trafficable laneways having carriageway widths less than five (5) metres. Such

laneways are generally too narrow to accommodate parking and permit safe vehicle access along

the laneway. Laneways having carriageway widths of five (5) metres or greater may accommodate

parking on one side of the lane subject to consideration of:

 Volume and composition of traffic utilising the laneway.

 Vehicular turning paths for access to off-street parking spaces.

 Vehicular turning paths at laneway intersections.

 Camber of the laneway impacting the lean of high vehicles.

 ‘No Stopping’ distance requirements at laneway intersections.

Council will prioritise access to off-street parking spaces over parking provision within the laneway.

7.8 Boat, Caravan & Trailer Parking

The use of kerbside space for the long term storage of trailers and caravans can often have a

negative impact on neighbourhoods and streetscape and reduce the capacity of on-street parking.

At locations where there is a congregation of long term trailer and/or caravan parking and storage,

Council may implement parking restrictions to discourage such activity on its local streets.

7.9 Treatment of Intersections

The NSW Road Rules includes offences for stopping a vehicle in or near intersections. Parking

within 10 metres of an intersection without traffic signals is not permitted unless it is signposted to

permit such parking. Many intersection approaches within the Council area, primarily confined to

minor roads, are not signposted with restrictions. In such cases the default position under Road

Rule 170 automatically applies prohibiting the stopping of vehicles within the 10 metre zone.

The regulation of parking at non-signalised intersections on local roads can be undertaken by

Council subject to following the traffic committee process. Intersections controlled by traffic signals

or on State Roads are under the control of the RMS for the purposes of regulating traffic and

accordingly the setting of “No Stopping” distances at such sites are not within Council’s jurisdiction.

In areas where parking demand is low, regular parking within the statutory ‘No Stopping’ distance

is unlikely and it is generally not necessary to install “No Stopping” signage. Conversely in

locations of high parking demand, the Road Rule is often breached making it desirable to provide

signs or other indicators of the limit of permitted parking such as yellow line marking.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

Council does not undertake a proactive program to signpost all intersection ‘No Stopping’

restrictions. Action will normally be taken to investigate and consider such signposting in any of

the following circumstances:

a) The incidence of ongoing non-compliance with the Road Rule is supported by multiple

requests, penalty infringement notices, or accident history.

b) The incidence of ongoing non-compliance with the Road Rule results in unacceptable

impacts on sight distance & safety or obstructions to vehicle manoeuvrability when

negotiating the intersection.

c) Obstructions to pedestrian ramps, vehicle driveways or designated bike routes.

d) Other parking restriction signposting is being put in place up to the intersection.

e) As part of designs for new or modified traffic facilities at intersections.

Where investigations reveal non-compliance is impacting the satisfactory operation of the

intersection recommendations will be made through the Local Traffic Committee for the erection of

“No Stopping” signage to reinforce the Road Rule. In compliance with the RMS Technical Direction

the mandatory “No Stopping” distances are normally regarded as the minimum and

recommendations are normally made for the intersections to be signposted to at least that

minimum.

Where it is considered reasonable to consider a reduction in the regulatory “No-Stopping” distance,

Council may complete a risk assessment to consider potential road safety and network efficiency

issues that may arise by reducing the “No Stopping” distance below the statutory minimum.

Issues considered will include:

a) Crossing Sight distance for pedestrians to ensure that a pedestrian can see

approaching traffic in sufficient time to judge a safe gap and cross the roadway. Parked

vehicles near intersections can cause visual obstructions.

b) Vehicle sight distances to provide sufficient distance for a driver to observe another

vehicle approaching the intersection and to decelerate before reaching potential collision

point or to provide sufficient gap to complete turning manoeuvre.

c) Vehicle speeds approaching intersections directly impacts required sight distances.

d) Turning paths to provide sufficient clearance to enable vehicles to manoeuvre through

an intersection.

e) Use by large vehicles, buses, emergency vehicle access, waste collection.

f) Parking manoeuvres which may obstruct the intersection, eg angle parking.

g) Other site constraints.

The sight distance and manoeuvring requirements for many intersections that cater for two-way

flow are unlikely to provide the opportunity to reduce the ‘No Stopping’ distance. Opportunities for

reductions in distances may present themselves on the departure side of intersections with

oneway traffic flows and in narrow laneways subject to there being sufficient manoeuvring room.

7.10 Narrow Street Parking Schemes

The Inner West contains numerous ‘narrow streets’ that do not have adequate dimensions to

facilitate the parking of vehicles on both sides of the road within the carriageway while maintaining

a minimum trafficable lane width to accommodate emergency and service vehicle access.

Potential solutions that Council may consider include:

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

a) “No Parking” restrictions on one or both sides of the road in accordance with the Road

Rules.

b) Creation of a low speed ‘shared zone’ allowing for parked vehicle encroachment on

footpaths within marked parking bays. This option will generally only be considered for

streets which have an historic footpath encroachment parking regime.

Proposals for the creation of ‘shared zones’ require RMS approval and will be assessed and

developed in accordance with RMS Technical Directions. The ability to implement ‘shared zone’

solutions, which necessarily require traffic calming measures to be constructed, will be subject to

budget constraints within Council’s forward capital works program.

7.11 Car Share Parking Schemes

Council will prioritise the provision of parking for use by Council authorised car share schemes as

part of its holistic approach to:

a) Reduce dependency on private car use

b) Reduce traffic congestion

c) Reduce on-street parking demand through reduction in car private ownership.

Council may authorise car share schemes:

a) to utilise fixed spaces designated for car share parking or

b) to operate on the basis of non-fixed parking spaces or

c) to operate with a mixture of both fixed and non-fixed parking.

d) to be recognised participants in permit parking schemes operating within the Inner West.

Council may provide dedicated on-street car share parking spaces with due consideration of RMS

Technical Direction “Guidelines for on-street fixed space car share parking” as well as dedicated

off-street spaces in Council owned or controlled carparks. Commercial or residential

developments, are also considered as appropriate locations for off-street car share. The following

hierarchy of preferred locations for on-street designated car share spaces will be considered when

assessing suitability of locations:

a) Transport hub/node

b) Public land (eg park)

c) Public facility (eg leisure centre, community hall)

d) Retail/ commercial strips

e) High density residential

f) Side boundary of residences.

g) Other locations.

The provision of designated car share spaces fronting single dwellings will be given low priority

and in most circumstances avoided.

Costs associated with the installation, maintenance and administration of dedicated car share

spaces will be met by the authorised car share company seeking its creation. Consideration of a

request for the creation of a dedicated car share space will be subject to the applicant

demonstrating sufficient demand.

A clearly marked car share vehicle, operated by a car share scheme authorised by Council, will be

entitled to the same parking exemption in a permit parking zone as provided to the holder of a

resident parking permit.

The authorisation and operation of car share schemes will be subject to Council’s Car Share

Policy.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

7.12 Parking Permits

7.12.1 Purpose

Parking permits exempt holders from time limits and parking fees in spaces signposted 'PERMIT

HOLDERS EXCEPTED’ or ‘AUTHORISED RESIDENTS VEHICLES EXCEPTED’.

The need for parking permits arises directly from the imposition of kerbside parking controls and

need to improve the amenity for a particular class of road user(s) who do not have sufficient off-

street, or unrestricted on-street, parking facilities available. Permit parking also helps to balance

the needs of the local community with those of the broader community in high demand areas.

Where vehicles are only permitted to park for a short length of time, permits are often also needed

for a certain everyday activities, such as visits by friends, tradespeople, carers.

7.12.2 Display and use of permits

A permit must be displayed on the left-hand, passenger side of the front windscreen or dashboard

with all permit details clearly visible to an authorised officer.

A permit is valid only where kerbside signposting includes the words 'PERMIT HOLDERS

EXCEPTED’ or ‘AUTHORISED RESIDENTS VEHICLES EXCEPTED’. The area identification

number must correspond to the number on the permit.

It is the responsibility of the driver to ensure the permit is valid and used correctly.

Council will exempt motorbikes from the requirement to display a parking permit within a permit

parking scheme zone.

Council may choose to administer parking permits electronically in the future. For this purpose a

parking permit may be a virtual product held in an electronic or other database that contains all

relevant information about the permit, permit holder and vehicle. Residents may apply to maintain

hard copy parking permits.

7.12.3 Validity

Unless otherwise specified parking permits will be valid for one year from date of issue.

7.12.4 Exclusion of Certain Developments

The intensification of urban land use in the Inner West has significant implications for traffic

generation and on-street parking demand and liveability of existing neighbourhoods. In order to

mitigate this impact, discourage private car dependency and prevent parking demand associated

with major residential and commercial developments from spilling into existing neighbourhoods the

developments indicated in Table 7.1 are excluded from participating in permit parking schemes.

7.13 Permit Parking Zones

7.13.1 Zone Boundaries

A number of permit parking zones are created across the Inner West to ensure permits are used to

park near the household or business to which they are issued. The number of parking zones will

be kept to the minimum necessary to maintain the integrity of the permit system. Where possible

and to assist clarity of zone extents, permit parking zone boundaries will generally follow major

built or natural features such as arterial roads, railways and natural boundaries.

7.13.2 Zones with Reduced Permit Issue

Certain permit zones (Zone Type A) are eligible for a maximum of one parking permit if properties

do not have on-site parking. Such zone restrictions are necessary in areas which have a high

density of dwellings and limited on-street parking space so as to provide equitable access to

parking opportunities and to mitigate oversubscription.

Council will monitor permit numbers issued relative to available parking spaces in each parking

area. Where the number of parking permits exceeds the number of parking spaces Council may

reduce the number of permits issued to dwellings or restrict further issue.

7.13.3 Zone Extent

Council recognises that parking issues within the Inner West can probably never be fully resolved

to the satisfaction of all parties and compromise is often required to accommodate varying parking

needs. The overall philosophy in developing parking options is to provide an equitable distribution

of available kerbside parking spaces to accommodate those varying and often competing parking

demands.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

When developing resident parking schemes, initial implementation will generally be considered for

one side of the street only, giving a level of parking security to residents while retaining

unrestricted parking on the other side of the street to provide opportunities for use by business and

their patrons, trades, service vehicles, residents who are excluded from participating in a permit

parking scheme, other visitors to the area or those who wish to opt out of resident parking scheme

participation.

Exceptions may apply to locations of high parking demand, such as proximity to commercial areas,

which may necessitate a permit parking scheme on both sides of the street.

7.14 Resident Parking Permits

7.14.1 Purpose

Resident parking permits enable eligible residents, who do not have sufficient on-site parking, to

park on-street and avoid time limits and parking fees.

a) accessibility by a vehicle

b) the presence of a garage door or roller door

c) the existence of a vehicular kerb ramp/ crossover

d) the presence of a carport, garage structure or hardstand area

e) evidence of use of the space for parking

f) ability to utilise space for tandem parking of vehicles.

g) any approved or registered plans.

h) Whether property or access could reasonably be modified to provide on-site parking.

7.14.5 Temporary resident parking permits

Interim Resident Parking Permit

Council may issue an interim resident parking permit for:

a) Interstate Registered Vehicle.

If an eligible resident has moved to the Inner West and their vehicle is registered interstate a

temporary permit, valid for 3 months, may be issued. It is compulsory to change the vehicle

registration details to a NSW address within 90 days under NSW regulations. Once the applicant's

vehicle is registered to an Inner West address, applicants will be eligible for an annual resident

parking permit in accordance with eligibility criteria.

b) Damaged or Stolen Vehicle.

If an eligible applicant's vehicle has been damaged or stolen, Council may issue an interim

resident parking permit for up to 3 months. Applicants will be required to provide documentary

evidence in support of their claim or a statutory declaration.

certificate or exempt development) renders the on-site parking space at an eligible applicant’s

address temporarily inaccessible Council will issue a temporary construction work parking permit.

The permit must not be used to accommodate the storage of materials in the on-site car space.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

A temporary permit will be issued to one only nominated vehicle registered at the applicant’s

address, and may not be used by any other vehicle. The maximum duration of such permits is six

months. Residents must provide proof of works being undertaken.

7.15 Visitor Parking Permits

7.15.1 Purpose

Visitor parking permits enable residents' visitors, including family members, friends, carers,

medical practitioners and tradespersons to park on-street and avoid time limits and parking fees for

the period of operation of the permit. Visitor permits are issued for residential properties only.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

7.16 Tradespersons Temporary Parking Permit

7.16.1 Purpose

Tradespersons’ Parking Permits enable tradespersons, who carry out maintenance and

improvement work for residents, to park on-street and avoid time limits and parking fees. They may

Scheme Zone will be displayed on the permit.

7.17 Business Parking Permits

7.17.1 Purpose

A business parking permit exempts a business vehicle from time limits and parking fees in spaces

signposted 'PERMIT HOLDERS EXCEPTED’ or ‘AUTHORISED RESIDENTS VEHICLES

EXCEPTED’.

A business parking permit may be issued to a business located within an approved parking

scheme zone that requires a vehicle for business use.

Given the very high competition for on-street parking and the need to maintain parking turnover for

retail customers, visitors and residents, business parking permits are issued only for vehicles

registered in the name of the business as being for business use, and used in its routine daily

business operation.

7.17.2 Eligibility

A business within a permit parking scheme zone may be eligible for business parking permit

subject to:

a) Proof of registered business operating in premises located within a parking scheme zone,

and

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

b) an eligible vehicle being required for routine use in the day to day operation of the registered

business

c) the nominated vehicle being registered for business use in the name of the business, or a

principal of the business,

d) property having nil or limited on-site parking and cannot reasonably modify the property to

provide on-site parking.

e) The maximum number of permit entitlements for a rateable property not being exceeded.

The following are not eligible to receive business parking permits:

a) A development excluded from participation in permit parking schemes (refer Table 7.1).

b) A business or premises approved with the development condition that excludes access to

parking permits.

c) Premises without valid development consent and not approved for business use.

d) a truck, bus, tram, caravan, trailer or tractor or any vehicle which exceeds 4.5 tonnes Gross

Vehicle Mass or longer than 7.5 metres.

e) Where eligibility is revoked in instances of fraud or misuse.

to each registered business provided the maximum number of permits issued to one rateable

property in such circumstances will not exceed three (3).

7.17.4 Conditions of use

Business Parking Permits are intended for the operation of a business. They are not intended for

commuting to a place of employment or business.

7.18 Support Worker Parking Permits

A support worker parking permit is available for use across the City of Sydney and Inner West

Council areas. The permit has been introduced to assist support workers in their duties and relieve

them of the obligation to obtain and display multiple permits in these areas.

A support worker parking permit exempts a support worker's or service provider's vehicle from time

limits and parking fees while the support worker or service provider is providing in-home support.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

The permit is issued to the service provider rather than the recipient of the in-home support. This

facilitates more efficient access for the service provider and avoids placing application

requirements on residents.

By agreement the scheme is administered by the City of Sydney and applications for permits must

be made through the City of Sydney Council.

7.19 Carers' Parking Permits

7.19.1 Purpose

A carer’s parking permit exempts a vehicle used by a carer visiting a resident from time limits and

parking meter fees while the carer is providing in-home care.

The permit is issued to the resident rather than the carer. This enables residents to receive care

visits from multiple carers who are not eligible for the support workers parking permit.

7.19.2 Eligibility

A carer’s parking permit may be issued to a resident who is eligible for a resident parking permit

and has a letter from a recognised service provider or health professional setting out the resident's

need for in-home care. A carer’s parking permit will be issued in lieu of one entitlement to a

resident parking permit.

7.19.3 Conditions of Use

Eligible residents are entitled to one (1) transferable permit per household. The permit may only be

used for the purposes of providing in-home care. The permit must be returned to the resident once

the visit has ended.

The permits may only be used by carers providing care who meet the definition of carers as set out

in the Carers (Recognition) Act 2010.

7.20 Parking Scheme Investigations & Development

The following guidelines will generally apply for the initiation of investigations and implementation

of proposed schemes:

Initiation of Investigations

The development, review and implementation of parking schemes may be commenced through

Council initiated precinct parking studies or through site specific investigations initiated as a result

of a sufficient level of resident requests indicating a reasonable level of resident support for

potential changes to parking regulation in the neighbourhood.

Council will schedule the initiation of site specific investigations for a parking scheme, including

permit parking or introduction of angle parking, on receipt of requests from at least 10 households

or 50% of the households in the street block affected, whichever is less. A minimum of 24 months

will elapse before Council will revisit consideration of parking scheme proposals, unless substantial

land use change has subsequently occurred permanently impacting on-street parking in the

neighbourhood.

Warrant for Implementation.

To warrant consideration of a permit parking scheme implementation the parking occupancy in the

precinct under consideration should consistently reach 85% of the available parking spaces during

the period of proposed parking restriction. Such utilisation being contributed to by parking demand

generated from sources external to the neighbourhood.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

Level of Support

Council will generally not proceed with implementation of a parking scheme or changes to an

existing parking scheme in isolation from a precinct wide parking study unless at least 65% of

respondents, from different households within the proposed zone, support the proposal and

provided a minimum response rate of 30% of households is achieved to Council’s survey. In

completing this analysis Council may differentiate responses from those developments excluded

from participation in a Resident Parking Scheme (Table 7.1).

7.21 Prevention of Fraud and Misuse

7.21.1 Background

As a result of the high value of parking space, permit schemes are vulnerable to fraud and misuse

of permits. This creates a risk of long-stay parking in residential areas occupying parking space

otherwise intended for genuine customers, visitors and business users.

7.21.2 Action

Council will take action against misuse of permits. In the case of demonstrated fraud, improper

resale or misuse of permits the Council may revoke eligibility for the offending household, business

or organisation for a period of up to two years.

In instances where misuse of permits is reasonably suspected, the Council will give permit-holders

the opportunity to show cause as to why the permit should not be revoked. Permits will not be

arbitrarily or unreasonably revoked.

In cases of suspected falsification, duplication or theft of permits, the Council may refer the matter

to the NSW Police for investigation.

7.21.3 Record of on-site parking

To assist disclosure of on-site parking, the Council may maintain a record of on-site parking supply

at each residential or business address eligible to participate in the permit parking scheme.

Records will be based on information provided by applicants, development assessment

documents, aerial photographs and street-based site inspections.

7.21.4 Information on permits

In the case of a resident or business parking permit, the permit will display the vehicle registration

in order to prevent theft or improper transfer.

7.22 Transitional Arrangements

Transitional arrangements will minimise disruption or hardship by ensuring that existing permits of

a type that is not consistent with this policy are honoured until Council determines otherwise.

7.22.1 Community & Essential Services Permits

A large allocation of transferable business parking permits have been issued to certain community

and service organisations within the former Leichhardt Council area to enable unrestricted parking

of their employees’ private vehicles within designated permit parking scheme areas. Organisations

included schools, aged care, health care and police. The provision of free, on-street, unrestricted

parking for employee travel to work by private vehicle, in high parking demand areas, is contrary to

travel management strategies to reduce car dependency.

This scheme will be closed to new entrants. Existing organisations currently participating in this

scheme will continue to be provided access to such employee parking permits but not exceeding

their current allocation.

Inner West Council Public Domain Parking Policy

Eligible organisations will generally have access to business parking permits in accordance with

Section 7.17 of this policy.

7.22.2 Pensioner Permits

Special parking permits issued to resident pensioners within the former Leichhardt Council area

enable unrestricted parking in all residential parking scheme areas. For road users with mobility

constraints it is considered that the exemptions from parking restrictions embodied within the

Mobility Parking Scheme provides adequate access to unrestricted parking.

This scheme will be closed to new applicants from the date of public exhibition of this policy. Only

existing permit holders under this scheme will be able to continue to access this scheme and

renew their permits.

7.22.3 Existing Permits & Entitlements

Entitlements of existing permits in use at the time of adoption of this Policy will be honoured until

such time as permits expire or are otherwise no longer valid.
