"Release the hit list"

Despite a promise of “extensive consultation” the State Government is still with-holding most of its plans for the North Adelaide golf course in the urban forested Possum Park /Pirltawardli (Park 1 of your Adelaide Park Lands).

You can urge the Premier to identify every one of the 585 mature trees that he admits he wants to destroy.

The answers to these questions would fill a book or two. Now, those books have been published.

You'll lose more, for longer

Next summer, your opportunities to enjoy Open, Green, Public Park Lands with family and friends will be restricted more than ever by Premier, Peter Malinauskas.

Over 2024-25, the Premier is planning to take even more of your eastern Park Lands for an even longer period than ever before, to cater for a four-day taxpayer-subsidised festival of carbon emission motor racing.
