CARINE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
— PARKING BAYS
651. Hon TJORN SIBMA to the Minister for Education and
Training:
The question is dated yesterday.
I refer to a Facebook post of 4 September
by the member for Carine that announced that ''an additional 85 parking
bays will now be part of the McGowan government's $32 million
re-development of Carine Senior High School.'' Incidentally, that is my
old school.
(1) How many
parking bays were included in the original re-development plan?
(2) When was the
decision made to retrospectively incorporate the additional 85 parking bays
into the redevelopment?
(3) Will these
additional bays be temporary or permanent?
(4) Where
precisely will the parking bays be located, and upon whose land?
(5) How many of
these bays will be allocated to teachers and staff compared with students?
(6) By when will
the full number of additional bays be delivered?
(7) At what cost
will they be delivered?
Hon SUE
ELLERY replied:
I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question.
(1)–(7) I have been working with the member for Carine to
address concerns about student parking around Carine Senior High School.
Additional bays will be available by the commencement of term 1, 2022, and are
located on the south west corner of the Carine Senior High School site, off
Silica Street.
At my request, the Department of
Education has been working with the City of Stirling to discuss creating extra embayments in surrounding roads where
appropriate and to determine whether signage can be installed in the
local streets. The department has offered to contribute to the cost of the
embayments.
