Feedback to the Coober Pedy Regional Times strongly suggests that abuses of public office, including the potential targetting of individuals would continue from inside local government settings along with ongoing difficulties navigating the coloured tape of bureaucracy for residents choosing to lodge their concerns with the OPI. Many residents are elderly, ethnic, or/and have low literacy levels with no access to assistance with lodging genuine complaints or concerns. This failure in our system could equate to severe frustration, even torture for some individuals who are deserving of a peaceful retirement or similar. The growing lack of accountability in public office, along with the potential for facing cross agency collusion and other conflicts of interest, amongst the remedies, killed community confidence by the end of the evening.

This key focus along with the Council’s Water Management Plan will ensure an integrated and sustainable approach. While Council Adelaide Hills Management in the already uses recycled water on two ovals the only regional sport and recreation ground within the district at Woodside has the potential for significant Council Adelaide Hills reuse opportunity from the nearby SA Water Bird in Hand Wastewater Treatment Plan thereby reducing the reliance on ground water. $ 727,000 Adelaide Plains Council Rural Road Sealing – Freight and Tourism project seeks to seal freight and tourism networks that are currently unsealed roads and will deliver improved quality roads that will assist residents move from one area of Council to another, allow tourists to reach their destinations safely and Adelaide Plains Rural Road Sealing – achieve freight efficiencies that could not otherwise have been recognised.
