Adelaide Aquatic Centre Redevelopment: Construction Licence and Lease Agreement (Denise Norton Park / Pardipardinyilla (Park 2))

Project summary

To facilitate the State Government’s Adelaide Aquatic Centre Redevelopment project (Project), the Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) requires:

• a construction licence (draft Licence), and
• a long-term lease agreement (draft Lease Agreement).

The City of Adelaide undertook community consultation for a period of 21 days to provide an opportunity to submit comments in respect of these agreements with Council as part of its decision making in August 2023.

This consultation was to seek feedback on the draft Licence and draft Lease Agreement with the City of Adelaide for the new Adelaide Aquatic Centre, which will be owned and operated by the State Government.

As the State Government has already undertaken consultation on the project, any comments that relate specifically to the redevelopment of the new facility should be directed to the State Government’s engagement team. For more information, please visit DIT’s project website:

If you have any feedback about the project, please contact DIT directly:

• email, DIT.Engagement@sa.gov.au, or
• by phoning the enquiry line on 1300 794 880.
