I'm not sure why it would be required, those parking lots directly abut Halls Lane, with not even so much as a curb separating them. You could reconfigure them to access Halls lane with a hack saw and a can of paint.
I'd say if those properties were being redeveloped, the parking could be removed entirely in favour of a larger park, but that's another can of worms.
The 12m stub is to connect to those parking lots right there. I agree they probably could be reconfigured with more or less a bucket of paint but I want to avoid getting into a discussion of how feasible that is. (…) If those properties were re-developed, the parking would probably be built upon, along with the rest of the respective properties. Parking would likely move underground.
The larger parking lot is part of the PUC property, which I do believe is owned by the city, so there should not be any difficulty in reconfiguring it for access from Hall's Lane.
The smaller lot, on the E side of Gaukel, wouldn't work as well with access from Hall's Lane as it's a very narrow strip. But it's only four parking spaces, and two of them are designated for the PUC. I do believe the city would have the ability to move the entrance to Hall's Lane in this case.
