Deputy Premier, Susan Close, has stopped short of offering any timeline for long-delayed action to list your Adelaide Park Lands as a State Heritage Area.

More than four years after a State Heritage Council recommendation, the State Government is still relying on the same tired excuses for its failure to act.

It’s possible for a single artwork to win more than one prize in this year’s Adelaide Park Lands Art Prize. Categories include young artists, digital artists, First Nations artists, new (emerging) artists and others.

If you Love Your Park Lands, like we do, you might occasionally hear criticism from people who have latched onto a Park Lands myth.

This month, we’re MYTH-BUSTING the claim that “car parking is a legitimate use of Park Lands.”

Premier Peter Malinauskas has been urged to intervene to RESTORE and PROTECT Denise Norton Park / Pardipardinyilla (Park 2) in response to growing public demand. The site that the Government has announced for a new Aquatic Centre does not reflect public opinion.

The City Council has signalled it wants a pro-active strategy to prioritise support for your Open Green Public garland of Parks.

Your Adelaide Park Lands are listed as a National Heritage place, but until now that has afforded them zero protection from a stream of State Government assaults.

However, Federal Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek has signalled that might be about to change, under a proposed new Federal Environment Protection Agency.

Last month’s re-zoning of Helen Mayo Park has fallen short of the Labor Government’s promise of “full protection”. A large part of this Park is still at risk of being lost under new buildings of up to 20 storeys.

Cognitive dissonance is a mental conflict that occurs when your actions and beliefs are at odds with each other. You believe something, but act as if you don't believe it.

A Labor-controlled Parliamentary Committee has started looking at how "to improve the resilience and longevity of trees comprising the urban forest." But will the Committee look at the actions of the Labor State Government?
