Act quicker on parking

With reference to the article regarding increasing the number of disabled parking bays (The Standard, February 7), I can only express my disbelief, but not surprise, about Warrnambool City Council's attitude. Cr Peter Hulin states "great to see council approaching this problem" and "I'm happy and enthusiastic to have this review". I don't wish to single him out as I am sure the other councillors share his sentiments, but he was the only one quoted in the article. These comments certainly do not reconcile with reality. May 2016 - petition received; June 2016 - decision to hold review; February 2017 - consideration of review; end 2018 - hope to complete works. That's nearly two-and-a-half years. So much for enthusiasm and accepting the need for something to be done. It is a shame that the long-suffering disabled public has to suffer from council's faux action.
