We are committed to facilitating genuine debate within Glen Eira. Your views on planning, environment, open space, CEO and councillor performance matter.
I’m inclined to agree with these commentators. A huge stuff up rather than someone playing funny buggers. If the latter then where did they get the signs from? Did they come with ladders to attach them? When? Would have taken some time so nobody saw what was going on?
The jokes on the bureaucrats, they now have to remove the illegal signs. I wonder how long they will wait before they try it again. If they do so its will be a tacit admission to their guilt.
Whatever the truth is, it is appropriate not to accept unquestioningly anything Council says without independent verification. They should have systems that document where their parking signs are and what they say. They should have processes for managing changes to parking restrictions, including checklists for simple things like who must be notified and who is required to authorize the changes. I’m curious how Council “knows” it was external to Council without knowing the perpetrator. We haven’t been told why a parking inspector was wandering along a stretch of street that used not to have parking restrictions. Heck, they don’t wander along streets that do have parking restrictions that often.

No 3 for sure. Typical of Glen Eira Council.

Does anyone know where this Maloney St Ormond is?

It’s Malane not Maloney.

Baloney for sure
