Parking at and Around Ceresa
Do not park anywhere at Ceresa unless you are sure that you are entitled to do so, and you understand and accept the parking rules. If you are not certain, or need the rules to be clarified, seek information before you park a vehicle.
PERSPECTIVENavigate Parking
Parking is scarce in the Tanunda Drive / Shorerush Bay precinct. There are four residential complexes, and street parking is very limited. Laws, by-laws, and rules are enforced. Make sure you understand them to avoid the disappointment of receiving a fine or having your vehicle towed away.
At Ceresa, each apartment has two allocated parking spaces in the basement, and some spaces accommodate only a small car.
There are only six parking spaces for Visitors, and one accessible space. Their use is subject to Terms and Conditions, and a valid Permit must be displayed. In addition, a valid ACROD permit is required to use the accessible parking (marked with the wheelchair symbol).
Changes to Western Australian legislation in 2020 no longer permit wheel clamping; offending vehicles may only be towed away.
VISITOR PARKINGNavigate Parking
The Visitor Parking spaces are for the use of people visiting residents of Ceresa; residents are not entitled to park their vehicles in the Visitor Parking spaces. To ensure that Visitors have fair and reasonable access, a Visitor Permit must be displayed. The Permit terms and conditions are enforced by an independent Parking Contractor.
The Building Manager issues the permits each year in exchange for the old ones. Tenants should contact their Property Manager (Letting Agent) to obtain the Permits.
If your pattern of staying at Ceresa resembles that of a resident, even a temporary resident, and behave like a resident you cannot park as a Visitor. Some indications that you are not entitled to Visitor Parking privileges include any one of the following:
- You work away from Perth, and when you are off work you come to Perth and normally stay at Ceresa during that time.
- You arrive to stay at Ceresa overnight without an overnight bag (change of clothes, sleepwear, and toiletries). Keeping clothes and personal grooming paraphernalia at Ceresa is behaviour consistent with being resident.
- You have your own key and can come and go at your convenience, even when the leaseholder or owner is not home. Visitors would normally come to see a resident when they are at home, and be let in by the resident host.
- You make use of the Common Facilities on your own, not accompanied by your resident host. At all times, in all common areas, without exception, Visitors must be accompanied by an adult resident. Using the pool, spa, sauna, gym, or any other Common Facilities unaccompanied means you are behaving like a resident.
- You spend more than two nights in any seven-day period, or more than five nights in any thirty-day period at Ceresa (whether you park on-site or not).
- If your main reason for coming to Ceresa is anything other than visiting a current resident at their home, or as a qualified tradesperson undertaking paid work in an apartment (08:30 - 17:00, Monday - Friday), you do not qualify for Visitor Parking privileges.
Temporary residents including those who treat Ceresa as a second home should park as a resident - in one of the allocated bays in the basement, or off-site.
