Vehicles parked on nature strips are deemed to obstruct the view of drivers and pedestrians entering and exiting driveways; prevent access to utilities and can cause damage to utility connections or tree roots under the nature strip. We also know that there are more vehicles per household than in the past and roads are becoming congested.

Current Law

Council’s current Local Law does not have restrictions on long term parking or storing of trailers, caravans and boats, which can lead to vehicles being parked unrestricted on residential roads and on Council land.

Proposed idea:

This idea aims to prevent the long-term parking and/or storage of trailers, caravans and boats on residential roads and on Council land (including on a nature strip).
