Its geographic scope is defined as the whole district with stated exclusions (Schedule 1). It limits automatic application to parking facilities not occupied by the local government unless there is a written agreement between the council and the owner/occupier (cl.1.2(2)–(3)), thereby introducing a contractual route to extend the law to private parking stations."},"complexity_factors":["Extensive definitions and cross‑references to other instruments (cl.1.5, cl.1.6) increase interpretive work","Discretionary administrative powers to create parking stalls, set signs and issue/revoke permits (cl.2.1, cl.4.2, cl.1.10) require local policy decisions","Detailed operational rules on vehicle position, distances and parking manners create many technical compliance points (cl.2.2, cl.3.2, cl.3.5)","Multiple enforcement tools and actor powers (authorised persons, marking tyres, directing drivers, removal of notices) create procedural steps to be followed (cl.3.6, cl.3.7, cl.7.1, cl.7.8)","Sanctions include both court penalties and a prescribed infringement schedule with fixed modified penalties (cl.8.1, cl.8.2, Sch.2)","Specific ticketing and payment modes, and rules for ticket machines and attendants, impose operational requirements on parking stations (cl.2.4–2.8)","Scope limits and application to non‑council facilities only by written agreement introduce contractual arrangements with private owners (cl.1.2(2)–(3))","Geographic exclusions and interactions with Main Roads/Commissioner delegation affect where the law applies (Sch.1)"],"plain_english_summary":"This local law sets rules for parking and parking facilities across the City of Kalamunda: it defines permitted and prohibited parking, signage, ticketing and payment, enforcement powers, offences and fines, and repeals the 2008 local law. It applies to the council‑occupied parking region (the whole district with specific road, bridge and signal‑approach exclusions) and will apply to private parking facilities only where the council and the owner agree in writing, so it determines who may park where, who enforces the rules and who pays fines (cl.1.2, Sch.1, Parts 2–8)."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019","history":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019/history","analysis":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/city-of-kalamunda-parking-and-parking-facilities-local-law-2019/documents"}}
