Advice

The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.

Background

The City is committed to providing dedicated parking for car sharing across the Local Government Area as part of a Council approved Car Share Policy.

In October 2016, the Committee endorsed a proposal for a car share space in O'Connor Street, Chippendale, just west of Carlton Street. However, in May 2017, prior to the installation of the above car share space, the developer of the adjacent property, 20 Wellington Street, Chippendale submitted a proposal to widen the footpath on O'Connor Street, which therefore prevented the installation of the above car share space in its approved location. Hertz24/7 has requested the installation of this car share space on the southern side of O'Connor Street in a new location nearby.
