Abstract

The presence of illegal parking attendants (IPAs) in Padang, Indonesia, indicates the practice of parking mismanagement. This study explored why the Padang government cannot control the widespread menace of IPAs using an interpretive approach based on mixed qualitative research. Data collection techniques were conducted through interviews with three different types of respondents. In addition, observations were made to further understand the phenomenon and triangulate the interview findings. The results revealed 3 indicators of parking mismanagement practice: (1) the inappropriate cash flow mechanism of parking charges, (2) the parking signs limitation, and (3) the weak law enforcement. Handling the IPA problem is a part of city development planning that all departments in the local government must pay attention of. The widespread existence of IPAs represents parking mismanagement and local government failure. We call for all the relevant departments and authorities to discuss and collaborate in finding a comprehensive solution to the IPA problem that has impacted Padang's tourism industry. We propose beneficial parking management design, technology utilization, and cashless procedures to overcome this problem.

非法停车服务员与停车(不当)管理:以印尼西苏门答腊岛巴东为例

在印尼巴东，非法停车服务员(IPAs)的存在表明了停车管理不善的做法。本研究以混合质性研究为基础，探讨巴东政府为何无法控制IPAs的广泛威胁。数据收集技术是通过与三种不同类型的受访者的访谈进行的。此外，还进行了观察，以进一步了解这一现象并对访谈结果进行三角测量。研究结果揭示了停车管理不善的3个指标:(1)停车收费现金流机制不合理;(2)停车标志限制;(3)执法不力。处理好IPA问题是城市发展规划中地方政府各部门必须重视的问题。IPAs的普遍存在代表着停车管理不善和地方政府的失败。我们呼吁所有相关部门和当局进行讨论和合作，以找到一个全面的解决方案，以解决影响巴东旅游业的IPA问题。我们提出了有益的停车管理设计、技术利用和无现金程序来克服这一问题。
