Make Your Views Known on Draft Street and Roadside Trading Policy
Residents, traders and disability groups are invited to make their views known on Council’s draft Street and Roadside Trading Policy.
Footpath and roadside trading has become a popular part of our shopping culture. Chairs and tables, umbrellas, signs and displayed goods are familiar sights in our shopping strips.
While footpath trading adds to the appeal and character of our retail precincts; it is important that footpaths remain accessible to people of all abilities. The shire’s draft policy seeks to accommodate the needs of traders, pedestrians and people with disabilities.

Your views will assist Council in developing a consistent framework aimed at maximising the pleasure and safety of all footpath users and enhancing the attractiveness and appeal of our streetscapes. A copy of the draft policy can be found on the Shire’s website at www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au or by calling 9294 6417.
Written submissions are due by 19 June 2009 and should be addressed to: The Chief Executive Officer, Shire of Yarra Ranges, PO Box 105, Lilydale, Victoria, 3140. E-mail submissions should be sent to: mail@yarraranges.vic.gov.au
