St Clair parking fines

Has anyone else received a parking fine for parking on the grass at St Clair on junior finals night? Just received a nice $69 fine in the mail.

That should net them a nice 2 to 3 grand if all the others parked there were also fined. Did they do the same thing at state champs as cars were parked everywhere then due to the election?

Great venue, shit parking, guess i'm supposed to catch the train there and then home at 11pm.

It was particularly bad finals night, as the other parking area near tennis courts was closed due to roadworks.

#414 Don't think i said St Clair get any money from fines you spud but you assume what you want and go off half cocked.

The 'them' referred to is who issues the fines, the City of Charles Sturt Council. They must need to recoup some of the $15mil spent.

You most likely had one stuck to your car but due to the heavy rain it washed off so now they are chasing you up.

You are very angry and nasty. you don't like to be wrong do you. He clearly didn’t mean st clair was getting the money.
Step back and have a look how everyone else interacts on here and then have a look how you interact with others on here .....see the difference? wake up and see this before you get to old and stuck in your ways. I feel sorry for you

You have to love this forum. Ask a simple question if others had received fines and get called a spud, a fuck wit and a fat shit. Lovely.

Yes i mentioned St Clair as that's where i parked, along with many others, hence the quite valid question. There was no notice on the car as the letter states they didn't issue it at the time, just took photos and rego numbers.

EDIT to the OP: "That should net them (INSERT: the people that issued the fine)a nice 2 to 3 grand if all the others parked there were also fined. Did they do the same thing at state champs as cars were parked everywhere then due to the election?" (Hopefully that helps the fat shit spud fuck wit understand now)

If it was obviously a not for parking area then i guess it wasn't obvious to all. You see when you drive into a car park, and follow other cars around to the back, and there's an opening for cars to drive onto an open grass area one would be fair to assume that its available for parking seeing as that's what one once did when parking at Titanium or even the Adelaide Oval.

If i was the ONLY car parked there then i'd understand the abuse but man just chill. I've been issued a fine, i'll pay the fine, just curious if others were also fined

OP...

Can you go back to the Council and explain the circumstances of the night, they may waive the fine but I suspect not.

Jump on their Facebook page and tell them everyone else was doing it so you shouldn't have to pay. They respond pretty quickly.

#452 Did i say it was a soccer pitch? No. It's an open grass area at the back between the stadium and the new road through... why am i bothering.

Spud, fat shit, fuck wit, lazy idiot i don't really care. Thanks for your concern but i'm sure i'll live. Its just a little sad that this is all you can manage to contribute to a civil conversation stemming from a valid question but... oh wait, it's school holidays, the year 10's are bored sitting at home waiting for 2K to update. Carry on.

#459 Thanks for the suggestion but i too suspect not.

But it is a soccer pitch, genius. Guess they just have a club room and nets to stop balls going on the road for no reason and it's actually more parking.

Valid question:

Did anyone else get fined for their own stupidity?

If it's a soccer pitch then i'll stand corrected. Didn't see any goals or markings when entering from the stadium carpark, maybe as that area was a building site for the tennis etc.

So, still interested to hear if any other fines have been issued to the rest of the fat, lazy, idiot, fuck wit spuds that stupidly parked there.

Yes. They aren't picking on you.

There was a thread maybe for Christmas carnival where a lot of people got fines but I can’t find it.

This got angry quickly. For mine, nope I didnt get a parking fine, but then I parked in a side street 5 minutes away and walked in the rain as there were no available parks.

One better was the person that parked in front of a fire exit and caused a 5 minute delay to all games as the stadium staff cracked it.

Not sure what's wrong with parking in front of an emergency exit, it’s close to the actual car park so fair game you’d think. Just like the oval.

Thanks #468. I didn't go to the Xmas carnival and don't remember hearing anything at State Champs in May as it was a parking free for all south of the car park on the bark area under the trees.

Like i said, i'll no doubt pay the fine and won't look to park there next time just hope that others weren't hit with fines too.

Also hope that shirty, the slightly aggressive bear can manage to contain his rage and somehow bring himself to live in a society or if not he can go on living his sad troll life and give us all some mild amusement from time to time.

I received a fine I've viewed the evidence and it’s a photo of my number plate, no evidence to suggest the car is parked illegally or showing where the vehicle is parked in context.

Agreed there was an opening that wasn’t available before.

I wonder if any one has contested these fines in the past.

It’s disappointing they should build a venue that has great facilities and is able to host large competitions but they should have addressed the parking also to reflect the volume of patrons usage.

I saw cars parked on the end of rows, and the frustrating thing that they are all 1 way dead ends so If you go down to look for a park and there are none and people follow you you are stuck.

It’s a shamozzle, compared to large venues in Victoria who cater for parking.

Ring the number here and say you didn't know you couldn’t park somewhere other than the car park and they’ll rescind it.

Maybe they can install some proper flooring in with all this fine revenue the council is earning from the lack of parking! I still sometimes wonder if the new St Clair was designed by the same forward thinking person who envisioned the Southern Expressway as a one way road.

What's wrong with the FIBA approved flooring they used?

If you've used the courts for longer then 10 minutes you would know the difference between a sprung and non sprung court.
Funny how during the FIBA World Cup they used Quick Lock wooden floors, which are also the choice for hundreds of high school and college courts across the USA, not the "FIBA Approved" St Clair flooring (lino on concrete).

The stadium slab is concrete but the floor itself is 100% wood about 1inch thick sitting on a 1inch underlay.

Parking was as expected, the leaking roof was something new though.

The 36ers players had the choice of training out of Wayville or Pt Adelaide. Why didn't they consider St Clair? The floor. I don't know the details, except that the 36er players and just about every junior player I've spoken to can attest to the fact the floor isn't up to standard. BSA held a camp of sorts earlier in the year and this was a common point of criticism.

Or, BSA owns Port Adelaide and not St Clair. Good conspiracy theory though.

36ers didn't pick st Clair for practice because they have no money , the floor at the entertainment centre looks pretty similar to St Clair , made in Germany, funny that so is the St Clair floor

#545 what a load of nonsense.

The 36ers often do small group training at St Clair on Sundays. So when the coaches and players can choose a court to train on and not be bound by a club agreement they choose St Clair.

And exactly the point, the 36ers new drop in floor most resembles St Clair.

Sixers opinion was sort on st clair floor options... they approve of the choice. Re car parking. Was at carnival and parked side street and a0void a fine. Not rocket science. Garden area not car parking. funny that. Was going to park on soccer field but thought maybe that for soccer since they don't play soccer in car park. I could be wrong but if you park illegally your problem not venues....

Okay I'll go tell my 36er mates they're full of shit and made the whole thing up. Same goes for the juniors and BSA camp coaches. Boy is my face red.

Thanks for your insight guys, I'm sure it wasn't founded on ignorance at all.

The Woodville and YMCA fanbois are out in force

The floors are sub par. Anyone who walks into the building can see that. Price that had to be paid for the venue but let's all just accept it for what it is.
