Council seeks a single integrated system for the identification of heritage places to provide a platform for effective reform, enable consistency of approach, and provide administrative efficiencies and effectiveness via streamlined processes.

• Such an approach will realise the full economic, tourism, cultural, community and sustainability value of our built heritage.
• Our position details how this can be achieved by making specific changes to existing tools and legislation.
• Council has recently demonstrated its commitment to engagement with key stakeholders by hosting forums, sharing information, and conducting discussions with stakeholders within the City and across South Australia.
• Accordingly, we have shared our position with the Minister Rau and Minister Hunter, all state Members of Parliament, South Australian Mayors, and the President of the Local Government Association.
