Mayor John Dal Broi said council wanted Banna Avenue and the nearby adjoining streets to be a place people wanted to come and enjoy.

He said a big part of that was keeping the street active and inviting and pedestrian friendly.

“That means council’s policies need to be responsive to those issues,” Councillor Dal Broi said.

Council’s sustainable development director Neil Southorn said part of the reason for the review was to ensure correct access to the footpaths and to ensure there was reasonable consistency with licence holders.

“The footpath is part of the road reserve which is managed by council and businesses require a licence to utilise the footpath for outdoor dining,” Mr Southorn said.

“Permits are also required for other uses including the display of goods, advertising signage, busking, selling tickets, coffee carts etc.”
