“Free” Parking
Submissions close this Sunday 7th May 2017 for the “Free” Parking proposal in Central City.

Submissions close this Sunday 7th May 2017 for the “Free” Parking proposal in Central City.
Do you support subsidizing businesses in the CBD?
The touted $26 is not a flat rate; it is an addition (increase) to Access Hamilton which is calculated on the capital value (CV) of the property. Higher the value the more you pay.
Choice and consequence: those who choose to shop in the central city, the consequences are the availability and cost to park. That is the individual’s choice.
There is no such choice for those who choose (or unable or do not have a car) not to shop in the CBD and the consequence is you still pay (effectively to subsidise businesses in the CBD).
“Free” Parking failed to revitalise or bring people into the CBD in Lower Hutt, Porirua, New Plymouth or Rotorua.
A mobile app is proposed to notify motorists of available parking spaces.
Isn’t using a mobile while driving against the law?
Pay for “Free” Parking in the CBD or not?

“Free Parking”

There is much confusion over the $26 for “Free Parking” the $26 is an average for residential ratepayers across the whole of Hamilton. It will not be a flat rate of $26.
The cost of the “Free Parking” will be an addition (increase) to Access Hamilton part of the Rates demand. The confusion arises with the $26 for the average property, which is calculated on the capital value of the property. The current calculation factor is 0.00019173. That calculation factor will change to establish the $26 average across the whole of Hamilton; it will be different for each property.
To use the $26 as an example, current Access Hamilton rate is $92.99 - the proposed (average) residential targeted rate for free parking of $26.00. That is a 21.85% increase to $118.99. ($23.99 more than the average $95)- And it will be even more, calculated on capital value. Just the $26 the property’s next year’s overall rate rise will be 5.56% but it will be more. What prevents Council in future from increasing the rate factor (i.e. the current 0.00019173), the ratepayer wouldn’t know and Council would gain more revenue. (to waste)
The ‘rich pricks’ in the Northern suburbs will pay more as their capital value is high.
The whole issue of “Free Parking” strikes at the heart of democracy. Democracy equals freedom. Freedom is the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants. ‘We do have some freedom of choice’
With choice there are consequences. Choice is at the heart of those who choose to shop in the central city, the consequences are the availability and cost to park. That is the individual’s choice.
Where is the choice for those who choose (or unable or do not have a car) not to shop in the CBD
"There's been talk about free parking for years. Let's give it a go and see if it works,” - Geoff Taylor.
What if it doesn’t work will Council (or Taylor) refund our money?
It hasn’t worked in Lower Hutt, Porirua, New Plymouth or Rotorua.
Council is also to replace parking meters and pay and display machines with new parking technology between 2015 and 2017 and introduce sensors in parking bays, giving motorists’ information on the availability of parks in the central city. A mobile app to notify motorists of available parking spaces.
