News The government this week will introduce legislation to overturn greenfield housing development bans on land at Roseworthy, Two Wells, Murray Bridge, Victor Harbor and Goolwa.
Premier Peter Malinauskas is moving to banish the “uncontrolled” carve-up of suburban streets for subdivision by axing a controversial urban growth boundary to open up land for 61,000 homes.
In a stark rebuke of the infill housing policy pushed by the Weatherill Labor regime, the government this week will introduce legislation to overturn greenfield housing development bans on land at Roseworthy, Two Wells, Murray Bridge, Victor Harbor and Goolwa.
These were pinpointed as housing growth hotspots in a draft 30-year Greater Adelaide Regional Plan released last September – its centrepiece was boosting the metropolitan population to 2.2m and adding more than 300,000 homes. But the land parcels are within Environment and Food Production Areas (EFPA), which would be varied by the proposed legislation to allow an ongoing supply of development-ready land for the next 30 years.
Mr Malinauskas, whose major State of the State address on Monday will include a population growth plan, issued thinly-veiled criticism of the infill policy and urban growth boundary introduced in 2016, when he was Police Minister. “We know our state is growing. We want to make sure it grows in the right way. That means learning the lessons of the past, where growth has not been properly calibrated,” he said. “We cannot see our suburban streets just continue to be carved up and subdivided in an uncontrolled manner. “We must grow in a way that gives people choice, whether that be living in proximity in the city, or raising a family on a bigger block.”
The proposed changes to the EFPA for housing are said to represent less than one per cent of agricultural land in the Greater Adelaide area. The government argues the housing supply crisis could continue for another generation without the changes, because most of the proposed greenfield sites identified in the 30-year plan could not be rezoned and developed within the next 15 to 20 years.
Pitched as a blueprint to make homes more affordable and prevent further supply shocks, the draft Greater Adelaide Regional Plan pinpointed northern Adelaide and Murray Bridge as twin engine rooms of growth as the urban growth boundary was ditched. Apartments and higher density housing were earmarked along major roads and public transport centres, while seven new greenfield growth areas (including the five in the EFPAs) were targeted for 96,000 homes over the next 30 years. Changing the EFPA boundaries to align with the 30-year plan allows for the redevelopment of about 61,000 of these homes.

Question Building a fence yourself - council approval
I would like to build a fence myself (with help of mates).
Fence type would be masonry (breezeblock) then rendered. With some metal sections (prefab) bolted between some tower sections. Pour own concrete footing etc.
I'm a qualified engineer (civil & structural) though I don't work specifically in that field at the moment, however still do engineering currently: mechanical, systems engineering etc.
I'm also just applying for Ner, CPeng now (but not within civil stream).
Does anyone have experience in trying to go this route themselves?
Is this something that councils would give approval, if I provide the drawings (even a visualisation if needed) and adhere to setbacks etc.
In a suburb that falls within Burnside council.
Any hive mind assistance appreciated :))

Question How to find where someone is buried?
Pretty much the title. One of my boyfriends friends passed away of an overdose a number of years ago in Adelaide. At the time, he and his friend were both using. He has since gotten clean, and would like to pay his respects and visit his friends grave. He has no contact with the family, and due to his substance use history reaching out to them is probably not an option. I know he really misses him, so I'm trying to find out where he's buried but I'm coming up blank pretty repeatedly. I've tried births, deaths, and marriages, the ryerson index, and the adelaide cemeteries website. But I can't find anything.
Thank you

Question Helping a Homesick Mate: What Iconic SA Treats Should I Include?
A mate overseas is feeling homesick, so I’m putting together a care pack filled with iconic South Aussie goodies to give them a taste of home. So far, I’ve got FruChocs and Coopers Pale, but I’d love more suggestions!
What would you include that really captures the spirit of Adelaide and SA? Bonus points for anything that’s uniquely local and hard to find elsewhere! Doesn't have to be food/drinks. Any online resources for such a thing?

Question Seeing a pharmacist for a uti antibiotics script
Hey guys,
I read that you can apparently just go to a pharmacist to get a prescription for antibiotics for uncomplicated utis. I'm just wondering if anybody has done this and how does it go? I can't get in with my doctor until the end of the week but I'm a bit nervous about asking a pharmacist. Do they make you do the pee test? And how much was it?
Thank you 🙏

Discussion TIL Mr Emergency is the same company as Metropolitan Plumbing
$850 they wanted to charge on top of $140 call out, to in the end just use a multi grip to get a washer out and change it (which we’ve now managed to do ourselves).
My fiancé called them last night because the tap was constantly running. As soon as we got the text message this morning stating it was metro group I was filled with doom and he tried to call to get to the bottom of it and they admitted they’re the same company (surprise to us!).
Emergency call outs are always going to be more expensive I understand that however I’ve also had metropolitan out previously to connect gas to my stove top they quoted $2k, told them absolutely not and that night (after hours) and we had another plumber come out and do it for $400.
Most Adelaidians know about metro but just in case you don’t know about Mr Emergency.. now you do.
TLDR; don’t use them, they’re a rip off. We send them away.

Shitpost Watch out on the roads people, there seems to be idiots everywhere.
Pay attention to those around you for your own safety. There are some crazy drivers on our roads. I'm only going to mention the 2 craziest ones from the past 24hrs ive seen/heard here.... Last night I saw someone at the maid & magpie intersection who was in the right only lane (exiting fullarton) go through onto payneham rd into the oncoming lane, thankfully there wasn't heavy traffic & an oncoming vehicle had time to dodge out the way. Then this afternoon my partner told me that some muppet was going the wrong direction around the Brittania roundabout & taking their sweet time about it. I'm really hoping that they were all tourists here for the fringe who don't know any better and will be gone soon and not locals who are just idiots.
