Episode 1456, Oct 20, 2021, 12:19 AM
There has been some community opposition to the multi-million dollar Goolwa Wharf draft Master Plan.
Friends of the Oscar W, a group dedicated to the restoration, maintenance and promotion of the historic 113-year-old Oscar W Paddle Steamer, generated more than 700 signatures on a petition against some elements of the draft plan on Sunday.
Volunteer engineer and committee member Kevin Cross joined Jennie on Monday to discuss his concerns.
Alexandrina Mayor Keith Parkes joins Jennie Lenman in this podcast to respond to concerns. The pair also discuss how riverbank erosion is delaying the opening of the Strathalbyn Pool and how Council will soon start looking for a new CEO.
The Council is taking on board all community input during the Goolwa Wharf draft Master Plan consultation, which closes this Friday 22 October via mysay.alexandrina.sa.gov.au/gwp.
