It's good to be green
Leaked - images of SAPOL compound in your Park
Fencing more than a kilometre long; with stables, sheds, parking, storage for guns, fodder, machinery and more.
An artist’s impression has emerged, of the State Government proposal to destroy the most biodiverse site within your Park Lands, with a compound much larger than the current Thebarton Police barracks.
Pleased to Meet You, Karen Rowley
Save Mirnu Wirra's biodiversity
Citizen scientists are hastening their efforts to identify the extent of biodiversity in your southern Park Lands, before the State Government carries out current plans to destroy eight hectares with a new security-fenced police compound.
So far, the Government has shown no sign of Loving Your Park Lands.
Have you voted yet?
More than four hundred votes have been received so far, in polling for the People’s Choice award at the Adelaide Park Lands Art Prize exhibition.

Motor racing trumps everything
The State Government will annoy pedestrians and cyclists for two months later this year, to cater for a four-day carbon emission motor sport festival.
One of the most popular pedestrian and cycling routes across your Park Lands will be closed for 60 days, for safety reasons, while a motor sport track is constructed again.
Ignoring the elephant
State Government bureaucrats are pressing ahead with plans for a new building on your Park Lands despite clear community feedback that it should go elsewhere.
Planning for a new Aquatic centre is proceeding, blind to clear community feedback that it should be sited on a brownfield location such as at Hindmarsh or Thebarton.

Travelling your parks
“Staycation” was somewhat of a buzzword during the height of the pandemic.
But for some, that fever for being a tourist in their own city hasn’t left them. One couple enjoy their home-based travel adventures so much, they’ve created a YouTube channel and have a large following for their vlogging.

Rally to Save Mirnu Wirra
A public rally has been called for Saturday 1 April in a bid to save a rare trove of restored native bushland, from being bulldozed for a “semi-industrial complex” in your Park Lands.
Hundreds of native species, lovingly restored over the past 15 years are set to be wiped out by a compound almost twice the size of the Adelaide Oval stadium, unless the Government changes course.
But you can intervene.
