Full Council Meeting: November 25th 2019
- General Purpose Financial Statements: These statements have already been to the auditors and the Audit Committee. They found no fault with Council accounting practices or financial position
- Adoption of the Annual Report: This makes for interesting reading and gives a good snap shot of Council for 2018-19
- Community Grants Program_Allocation of Funding: Funding of nearly $38,000 was allocated. Those of interest might be The Unley Gardeners Plant Rescue $2,315, UBUG $3,750 to further develop walking and cycling tours, Millswood Bowling Club $2,010 for equipment, Goodwood Cricket Club $1,375 for pitch covers, Goodwood Saints Football $1375 for a coaching development program, Forestville Hockey Club $2,400 for new hockey nets and to CATS $1500 for a sterilisation program.
- Community Activation; Cr Russo has asked Council to consider activating the Village Gereen when the AFLW match is played at Unley Oval
- Climate Change: The question from Cr Hughes is answered in a thorough manner. Take the time to read this if you want to know just how concerned the council is and what they are doing about it.
Goodwood Oval Grandstand Redevelopment: Update
The building of this facility is now almost ready to begin. Council is finalising the tender applications. Once a builder has been selected work will be able to commence almost immediately: by the end of December. It is my understanding that the football and cricket clubs have removed their property from within the building and that new temporary change rooms are being set up near the hockey area. We need to thank the former state government and Jayne Stinson for their generous grant of $2.5 million to get this project started.

Councillor's salaries
King William Road Nov 2019
As the bulk of the work is being completed it's easy to see the vision of Council, traders and the community coming together in one beautiful place. Shops are starting to fill with Xmas wares and new shops are filling the empty spaces. The orange posts will soon be removed so parking is available on the street. Well done!

Cats and Dogs
Just one tree!!
To my reckoning its not the cost of adding a tree but the price we'll all pay if they don't.
