Alexandrina Council Submission
Ref: 18.89.001 File: GR:sm 26 July 2019 Regions SA Primary Industries and Regions SA GPO Box 167 ADELAIDE SA 500 Via email to: [email protected] Re: Regional Development Strategy Discussion Paper – Alexandrina Council Submission Alexandrina Council is one of the State’s largest regional Councils, as well as one of the State’s fastest growing communities. We believe a focus on regional development by all three levels of government is essential to both the wellbeing of our community, but also the prosperity of the State, and we welcome the renewed focus and energy being directed toward regional development by the Government of South Australia. The following table provides a snap shot of Alexandrina Council and what our district contributes to the Fleurieu region and the State of South Australia. ALEXANDRINA AT A GLANCE … Federal Electorate of Mayo State Electorates of Finniss, Heysen, Hammond and Mawson Home of ‘Storm Boy’ and the Coorong, Home of the SA Wooden Boat Festival at Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth the iconic Goolwa Wharf One of the largest regional Councils in SA Population of 27,000 residents at average with approximately $50 million annual growth rate of 1.3% (sea change and tree turnover change impacts) $1 billion local economy driven by Ageing region with a median age of 51 agriculture, tourism, health and social years (being 11 years above the State services average of 40 years). Strong social capital with 28% volunteerism High seasonal visitation to pristine natural rates attractions and appealing destinations Service Provision Whilst the core, essential service needs of any community are very similar no matter where they are located, the unique geography and demographics of a particular region will have significant implications for the optimal method and mechanisms of service delivery. -

The State also acknowledges and respects the rights, interests and obligations of Ngarrindjeri to speak and care for their traditional country, lands and waters in accordance with their laws, customs, beliefs and traditions. The KNYA Taskforce Planning Workshop was part of the South Australian Government’s Murray Futures program, funded by the Australian Government’s Water for the Future program. Caution when reading this report The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) will always make every effort to respect Ngarrindjeri cultural sensitivities when featuring images or names of people who have recently died. However please be advised that this document may contain images of persons who have died after this Annual Report was finalised in January 2012 and we offer our apologies for any distress caused if this occurs.

Our method included Digital Elevation Model upland region in South Australia flanked by the St. Vincent and (DEM) data processing and visualisation, geomorphological western Murray Basins. This paper focuses on the southern analysis, field survey, and neotectonic structural interpretation. part of the Ranges between the Fleurieu Peninsula in the south This enabled us to define the main features of regolith–landscape and the Torrens River in the north (Figure 1). Traditionally, the response to the Middle Eocene–Middle Miocene neotectonic Mount Lofty Ranges was considered to be an intraplate region deformation and sea-level change. uplifted since the early Tertiary with inherited tectonic fabrics from the Delamerian structure (~500 Ma).

The Gondwanan glaciation was widespread throughout the A new model of neotectonic movements, independent of ancient Australian continent.

15.2 Sand Islands and Shoals
15 Islands 15.2 Sand Islands and Shoals Figure 15.1: (A) Aerial view of Troubridge Island and surrounding Troubridge Shoals: (c) Coastal Protection Branch, DEWNR. (B). Troubridge Island: (c) W. Bonham, Lighthouses of Australia. Asset Sand Islands and Shoals Description A crest of sand which rises above water level from a broad marine sand bank, forming an unstable sand island - Troubridge Island - which changes shape and size over time. The island is about 5m high at high tide, and about 2 hectares in area when inundated, but considerable larger at low tide. The island is surrounded by shallow sand embankments (Troubridge Shoals). Examples of Key Little Penguin, Black-faced Cormorant, Crested Tern and other breeding sea Species birds (numerous species) migratory wading birds (numerous species) abundant sand-dwelling invertebrates - food sources for fish and wading birds Pink Snapper King George whiting and school whiting syngnathid fishes (e.g. seahorses, pipefishes) sponges (forming “sponge gardens”, on consolidated sand) cowries; volutes and other specimen shells Knobby Argonaut (‘paper nautilus’ octopus) giant spider crab southern calamari Main Location Troubridge Island (and shallow sandbanks to the west - Troubridge Shoals) Notes Troubridge Island Conservation Park (approx. 260 hectares) was declared in 1982, and extended in 1986, partly to protect major breeding colonies of several seabird species, and provide protection for an important feeding ground used by migratory wading birds, listed under international treaties. Oceanography At the bottom of Gulf St Vincent, off the eastern “heel” of Yorke Peninsula, waters less than 20m occur up to 10km from shore. The oceanographic conditions have led to a long-term build-up of sand in some areas, including the creation of Troubridge Island, a sand island about 7km east of Sultana Point. -
