COVID-19 has affected all of us in some way. Council closed Neighbourhood Centres and Libraries and reached out to vulnerable members of the community in a number of different ways. We waived rent and utilities charges at Council facilities, for sports clubs, etc. Deferral of rates payment was granted in cases of hardship. In June, Council voted not to increase the average residential rate (in percentage terms) for the 2020/21 year to support our residents and local businesses in the time of the virus. This followed our decision to maintain a rate rise of 1.8 per cent for 2019/2020. This was the lowest average residential rate percentage increase of any suburban council. By working efficiently and innovatively we have continued to deliver the projects and services our community needs. Our major achievements included: Working with the Federal and State governments to open the $174 million Oaklands Crossing upgrade Opening the $3.7 million redevelopment of Morphettville Park Sports and Community Club Reopening 2.5km of the Coastal Walkway following its temporary closure for repairs.
