The development application to the Council for approval of converting part of Asquith Park into a car park was approved by the Council at its meeting on 26 February 2019. Please visit the City's website (Agendas, Minutes and Reports) to view the minutes and the report (Item 13.8). The City will now program the works to commence.
The parking improvements will also include a new design for the balance of Asquith Park. The new park will extend to the Olearia Lane where the current car parking bays will be removed as part of these works. The plans include a new footpath and area for people to meet, along with new plants, flower beds and grassed areas. The existing Peppermint tree will remain to provide valuable shade in the park.
To view the proposed plans, please visit the document library on this page.

Green spaces and parking bays
Share Green spaces and parking bays on Facebook Share Green spaces and parking bays on Twitter Share Green spaces and parking bays on Linkedin Email Green spaces and parking bays link
A number of people are concerned about the loss of green space if Asquith Park is converted to a car park or part of a car park. The City's preferred options would result in additional green spaces, particularly if Asquith Park is converted to a car park. There is potentially an additional 257m2 of green space being provided which includes all three sites.
In regard to increased parking bays there is potentially an additional 25 parking bays, depending on the community preferences.
