"Free" Parking
“Free” Parking
Today is the last day for submissions for the “Free” Parking proposal in Central City.
Do you support subsidising businesses in the CBD?
The touted $26 is not a flat rate; it is an addition (increase) to Access Hamilton which is calculated by capital value multiplied by 0.000251. Higher the CV the more you pay.
The “Free” parking proposal is in direct contrast/conflict with the District Plan, the 10 Year Plan and the Central City Transformation Plan. It completely undermines the spirit of these plans.
It is also diametrically opposed to both to the Parking Management Plan and the Active Travel Action Plan with their focus on cycling walking and busing, and is even contradicts the 2017/18 Annual Plan (its own source document).
Council has promised (and documented) rates certainty by 3.8% annual increase for 10 years, this fly’s in the face of that promise. Council’s credibility is at stake and ratepayers will lose trust and are undermining their own credibility, ratepayers no longer believe statements from Council.
Pay for “Free” Parking in the CBD or not?

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
