'Except Permit Holders'

A Five-Kind Typology of Stacked Kerbside Restriction Signs, and the Class Plate Now Fixed to Every Pole

A research poster from the School of Emergent Priorities photographs 286 stacked parking-sign poles in seven townships of one regional shire and sorts each into one of five kinds by how its lower signs qualify the upper, finding the two rarest kinds account for 17% of poles and 60% of upheld infringement appeals. The shire's Local Laws Unit adopts the kinds as the legal reading of a pole, fixes a class plate to every pole where the plate governs over the signs, and lets notices at the two rarest kinds lapse without review.
