Burwood Council is the parking authority for all on-street parking within the Burwood Local Government Area (LGA). Under the Road Transport (General) Regulation 2013 parking authorities may issue a permit authorising the parking of a vehicle without charge or time restrictions in a parking space located within a parking area or road.

In certain areas where demand for on-street parking exceeds supply, or areas which fall under Council’s Public Parking Strategy, Council may introduce time restricted parking to better manage these facilities.

To allow residents, residents’ visitors, business and commuters to park their vehicles in these restricted areas without time restrictions or charge, Council has implemented a Permit Parking Scheme (PPS).

This Draft Policy outlines the circumstances under which individuals or organisations may apply for, and be granted, a Parking Permit. Permits will only be issued in accordance with the eligibility criteria and conditions outlined in this Policy.

A summary of the changes to the Policy can be found in the report to Council dated 28 March 2023.

The Draft Permit Parking Scheme Policy is on exhibition from 19 April 2023 to 17 May 2023. A copy of the Draft Permit Parking Scheme Policy is available in the document library.

If you have something to say about the Draft Permit Parking Scheme Policy, we encourage you to make a submission. All submissions must be in writing and must be received by 17 May 2023. Please quote reference number SUB23/30.
