What a joke

But these families keep getting stung by parking rangers because their street is too narrow.

Statement from Brimbank Council director of city development Kelvin Walsh

The Victorian Road Safety Rules 2017 prohibit cars from parking on nature strips. Council is obliged to enforce these rules across Brimbank, including in Parry Drive, Sunshine West.

Council has received complaints from residents about illegally parked cars damaging nature strips and restricting pedestrian access – particularly on one side of the road where there is no footpath.

Council responds to complaints from residents and pedestrians who have concerns about cars parked on nature strips restricting pedestrian access.

Parking on the nature strip in Parry Drive and surrounding streets has been an ongoing issue raised by residents, and Council has issued fines on several occasions over recent years to deter illegal parking.

Council encourages residents who have concerns about parking issues in their neighbourhood to discuss their concerns with Council directly.
