| Which option for on-street short-stay parking in the central city do you support? |
Option 1: Two hours free (Council’s preferred option)
|
| Help us understand the reason for your response: |
With parking in the Garden Place carpark now having a sometimes faulty system and charging incorrectly it would be good to have the option of 2 hours free. The base and chartwell are free and expensive parking in town means less people in town shopping.

| Do you support Council’s proposal to increase the entry fee for non-Hamiltonians aged 16 and over to enter the enclosed areas at Hamilton Gardens to $27.50 from October 2026? |
No

I think that this is way too much to charge. Definitely too much of a jump. I go often with family when they visit but would reasses at the price of $27.50. Would be great to have more access to cold drinks such as water etc maybe in a drinks machine along the way.
