Cottesloe to revisit paid beach parking

Paid beach parking is back on the agenda at Cottesloe.

The SOS group of residents and ratepayers has asked the council to consider again ways to start a user-pays system.

Two years ago the council was swamped with criticism, including from the then Court government and the Labor opposition, both of whom agreed that paid parking should not be allowed.

The government changed the law to prevent it.

SOS has suggested that the council consider timed parking, user-pays parking and redeveloping the Napier Street carpark into several tiers.

The issue is on the agenda for this week's council meeting.
