BREAKING NEWS - Over 13,000 SIGNATURES AND ...

The campaign to protect Adelaide's heritage Park Lands has reached a major milestone, securing 13,500 physical signatures. This achievement officially triggers the 10,000-signature threshold required to prompt a Parliamentary Committee inquiry in the Legislative Council.

Spurred by growing community concern over state-backed development projects on public green spaces, the grassroots movement relies entirely on paper petitions distributed by volunteers across South Australia.

"This is bigger than any one person; this is a movement," said City Councillor Keiran Snape. "The fight for our Park Lands isn't a local, city-centric issue, it is a South Australian-wide demand for transparency."

With over two weeks remaining before the petition closes, organisers have set a new stretch target of 18,000 signatures to further strengthen the call for an independent parliamentary inquiry.

DRIVING RANGE DEVELOPMENT: THE COMMUNITY ...

What isn't the Government telling us about John E. Brown Park? While a new driving range has been confirmed, the Government has not answered basic questions about parking, fencing or when detailed plans will be made public. With around 185 trees expected to be removed, the community deserves transparency before work begins, not after.

Different excuse - same threat

Premier Peter Malinauskas has come up with a new excuse to try to justify what he says would be 585 trees to be destroyed in your urban-forested golf course Park, i.e. Possum Park / Pirltawardli (Park 1 of your Adelaide Park Lands).
