FEBRUARY 2021
in the loop
The draft Normanville Foreshore & Jetty Caravan Park Masterplan is one step closer to being presented to the Council for consideration. At the February meeting of Council, Elected Members carefully considered the 279 feedback submissions received from the community and a detailed report can be found in the February Council Meeting Agenda.
Elected Members voted to make many changes to the draft plan based on the community’s feedback. An updated Masterplan, Project Risk Management Framework and the Long Term Financial Plan will be presented to the next meeting of Council on 16 March 2021. To view the list of decisions, refer to the Council Meeting Summary on page 3.
Normanville Foreshore and Jetty Caravan Park Draft Masterplan
The South Australian state government is introducing new laws to prohibit or restrict some single-use plastic products being sold, supplied or distributed in the state from 1 March 2021.
Plastics play an important role in our economy and daily lives. But too often, the way plastics are produced, used and discarded results in a wasted resource, causing pollution, litter and harming marine life.
The Single-use and Other Plastic Products (Waste Avoidance) Act 2020 prohibits the sale, supply or distribution of single-use plastic straws, beverage stirrers and cutlery within South Australia. These items can be replaced with reusable and compostable alternatives.
Businesses are being urged to prepare now by using up existing stocks of the prohibited items, ordering sustainable alternatives, putting signage in place and training staff.
Visit www.replacethewaste.sa.gov.au for information and resources, contact the Replace the Waste business hotline on 1800 844 946 or email [email protected] for general enquiries.

CEO’s Corner An invitation for Rapid Bay I would like to meet with as many residents of Rapid Bay as possible to learn more about the township and to hear firsthand your thoughts on what the township needs and have a conversation about the campground.
For clarification on the Council position on the campground, I offer the following feedback:
October 2020 – With the current management agreement expiring in September 2021, a motion was moved by Council for Administration to prepare a report to Council to provide options for the Management of the Rapid Bay Campground, including Council performing the management in-house.
November 2020 – The requested report was provided to Council with the various options. The report recommended that the options be further discussed at the February 2021 Elected Member Forum. No preferred option was selected to create a business case.
February 2021 – The options from the report, plus others, were discussed with Elected Members. There is still no indication of a preferred option and I understand residents will probably have their own preferred options.
The next step is for Administration to provide a further report to Council prior to the expiry of the current management agreement.
I would now like the opportunity to get feedback from Rapid Bay residents prior to preparing the next report so I invite you to meet with me on Friday 12 March, at 7pm in the Council Chambers. Please RSVP to [email protected] if you wish to attend as seats are limited due to COVID restrictions.
The term “Usual Suspects”In our recent communication consultation plan for the Normanville Foreshore and Jetty Caravan Park Masterplan we wrote the following objective: “Make a concerted effort to reach a broad representation of people who live, work and play in the district, so not to hear just from ‘the usual suspects”.
I understand from feedback received that the term ‘the usual
suspects’ caused offence. The statement “the usual suspects” is a common term that states “the people or things you would expect to be present somewhere or doing a particular thing”. What the term was attempting to clarify was that we wanted to hear each and every ones opinions, not just limited to the ones that we already expect to receive. In retrospect, I can see how this could cause offence and therefore apologise for is inclusion and will commit to not using it again in the future.
Ask the CEO (Nigel Morris)Q. A new street named Butterworth has appeared in Normanville, off Jetty Road, prompting my questions. How are names for new streets chosen? Can the public make suggestions? Are the names considered formally by the council? - Don
Council has a Road Naming Policy to ensure that an open and transparent process is followed. Council must assign a name to each public road created by land division. The developer is required to submit the proposed road names to Council.
Sources for road names may include:
• Aboriginal names taken from the local Aboriginal language;
• early explorers, pioneers, and settlers;
• eminent persons;• local history;• thematic names such as flora,
fauna, ships etc;• war/casualty lists; and• commemorative names.
Names will be selected that are appropriate to the physical, historical or cultural character of the area concerned.
Council has been provided with a list of names from the Yankalilla Historical Society, Butterworth was on this list and was submitted by the developer when the land division was approved back in early 90’s.
For new roads Administration approve the road name, if it meets the criteria of the road naming policy, but changes to an existing road name are voted on by Council.

Mayor’s Corner I was very proud to introduce another young person to the rest of the community, Damon Wade who was the recipient of the Mayor’s Award at the Australia Day celebrations. Damon is inspirational and a role model to many of our young people through CFS and Surf Life Saving. It is also congratulations to both of those organisations for the leadership and mentoring of the youth in their emergency service roles.
Congratulations also goes to Ms Winnie Pelz who was the recipient of an AM (Member of the Order of Australia) award for her significant service to arts administration, and to the community.
A topic I am very passionate about is waste reduction and I am pleased that from 1 March 2021, single-use plastic straws, cutlery and stirrers will be prohibited from sale, supply or distribution in South Australia. This is just the first step.
From March 1, 2022, expanded polystyrene cups, bowls, plates and clamshell containers will be prohibited from sale, supply or distribution in South Australia. Oxo-degradable plastic products will also be prohibited from manufacture and production in the state. Oxo-degradable plastic products contain additives that cause the plastic to break down into tiny fragments (‘microplastic’), which does not completely decompose.
Well I say why wait until 2022 to get rid of oxo-degradable plastic products, I urge businesses and community groups to do your research and start replacing these items sooner. The government has set up “Replace the Waste”, an education campaign to assist with the transition, I encourage you all, especially businesses and our community groups to find out more.
An invitation to discuss boat launching access at Normanville Beach During our recent Normanville Foreshore Draft Masterplan consultation, boat launching access to Normanville Beach received various feedback and a clear direction on its use is yet to be determined and will be a topic at a future Elected Member Forum. I invite you to join me to discuss this issue on Monday 1st March, 5.30pm at Normanville Foreshore.

The Library Working Group has been working closely with Normanville based local building designer Harmonic Design to facilitate a comprehensive design solution for this wonderful facility.
Whilst making a visionary statement of its own merit the functional planning has been guided by the
requirement to relate the new facility to the existing building known as ‘the Centre’ which has been the temporary home of the Library.
It is envisaged that the building will be a multi-purpose, modern Library; highly functional and a hub of public activity.
Sneak Peek of the New Yankalilla Library Façade
The creation of the Wild South Coast Way on the Heysen Trail will connect the parks that run along our breathtaking southern coastline and become a beacon for locals and tourists alike, driving sustainable economic growth in the region.
The 6 million dollar investment by Marshall Liberal Government will upgrade sections of the iconic Heysen Trail from Cape Jervis to Victor Harbor to create a five day, four night hike and other high quality trail-based experiences.
The visitor experience at Deep Creek Conservation Park will be enhanced and expanded with a new day visitor facility, a universally-accessible walking trail, and upgrades to existing campgrounds and amenities. The project will also support new, and enhance existing, nature-based experiences in the tourism sector.
One of the first works underway is a new picnic area and lookout at Goondooloo Ridge in Deep Creek Conservation Park.
Construction of new facilities will start this month and will include a lookout, toilet, picnic areas, car parking and an upgraded trail. It’s anticipated construction of these facilities will be complete by May 2021 with the full project is expected to be completed by 2023.
This project will be delivered in partnership with National Parks & Wildlife, First Nations, District Council of Yankalilla, City of Victor Harbor, The Friends of the Heysen Trail, park users and the private sector. Council’s Group Manager Economic, Tourism & Community Lisa Pearson is sitting on the steering committee and together with a local action group has been a driver of this fantastic initiative from its inception.
