Check Your Car Parking Limits This SummerThe busy summer holiday period has arrived and it will be more difficult to find a car park in many of our towns. By Bass Coast Shire - 16th December 2005 - Back to News The busy summer holiday period has arrived and it will be more difficult to find a car park in many of our towns.
Bass Coast Shire Council is reminding both residents and visitors to remember to check the parking limit in the area you park.
Council’s Local Laws Team Leader, Kaye Hall, says Council staff will be out and about to ensure parking traffic is turned over so that everyone has the opportunity to use the available parking.
"All designated parking areas are clearly signed and residents and visitors to Bass Coast are asked to comply with parking restrictions at all times to avoid the need for Council to issue a parking infringement," said Ms Hall.
