Cr Kinghorne asked why the School Zone hours were 2.30pm – 4.30pm is this deliberately different as school zone times are normally until 4.00pm
Cr Mileto commented that because of the impact of Anson St special school it may have been the reason for the extension of time in the zone
Manager Engineering Services said that this was correct and 4.30pm is the correct time
Cr Hamling asked if residents had been notified of the change
Manager Engineering Services commented that residents had already been notified, and been asked for comment, Council had not had any feedback from residents to date
