10 September 2021
Interactive parking map goes live A new interactive map showing parking availability is now on Council’s website. The Town of Walkerville has developed a new parking map that utilises geospatial data and analytics software ESRI to map the available parking around the Township. Details on the type of parking (timed, restricted or disability parking) on Council land are mapped, providing information such as the approximate number of spaces, location and a Google street view link. The map can be viewed on our parking webpage here: https://www.walkerville.sa.gov.au/regulatory/parking The map will updated and edited as required to reflect new parking restrictions or changes to existing parking. For further information, please contact the Assets and Infrastructure Team during business hours on 8342 7100. Weekly Round Up 10 September 2021
First suburb markers installed Check them out while you are travelling through the Township. The first of Council’s new suburb markers are being unveiled across the Township as part of the Town of Walkerville signage project. Expertly designed by Martins Brand House in Magill, these 11 suburb markers are spread across the main entrances to each of our suburbs and provide a focal point for motorists and pedestrians as they travel through the Township. The installation of these markers will be followed by the Heritage Trail Markers and Streets of Distinction signage in the coming weeks. For further information on the project, please contact our Assets and Infrastructure Team during business hours on 8342 7100. Weekly Round Up 10 September 2021
Green bins at your stop!
Have you been to a bus stop in Walkerville recently?
If so, you would have seen one of the new Which Bin? posters. In order to reduce the
amount of organic material going to landfill, it is important that any food scraps go into
your green bin instead of your blue bin. Composting food scraps also helps Council to
save money on waste disposal.
The kitchen caddy system makes
it easy to collect scraps and
compostable material before
placing them into the green bin.
This includes:
• Coffee grounds and tea
bags;
• Paper towel and tissues;
• Bread, pasta and rice;
• Cheese and yoghurt;
• Vegetable and fruit
peelings;
• Meat, seafood and bones.
If you have seen one of the Which Bin? bus
shelter posters, street signs or banners in
the Town of Walkerville area – you have
the chance to win a $200 Foodland
voucher!
To enter, snap a selfie next to a bus shelter or
street sign and tell us what you put in your
kitchen caddy or green bin and why to win!
Post your photo or short video entry on our
Facebook post by clicking here.
The winner will be drawn Friday 1 October 2021.
By entering, you agree to the East Waste Terms
and Conditions listed here.

Weekly Round Up 10 September 2021
Open for consultation: Council projects
Draft Parking Policy
The Town of Walkerville is consulting on a
new Township-wide policy to guide parking
within the district.
This policy is an amalgamation of Council's
two existing policies – General On-Street
Parking Policy and Residential Parking
Permit Policy – in order to provide a single,
more succinct and rational framework to
parking within the Township.
Under the combined policy:
• Existing residential permits would remain in place;
• Visitor Parking Vouchers would be introduced for vehicles that are visiting a
property within a residential permit exempt zone or time limited zone;
• Extended Parking Vouchers would be introduced for residents that are
undertaking ongoing construction of associated works exceeding one week.
The new system would provide Visitor Parking Vouchers Booklets, containing 20
vouchers valid for 24 hours, for residents to purchase at a cost – currently being
considered for $50 – for situations where extended parking exemptions are required.
A maximum of five booklets per year would be available for purchase per household.
The system would also allow for free Extended Parking Vouchers for trades and work
contractors who are undertaking extended construction or associated works. These
vouchers cannot be customised to suit individual requests.
Council seeks your feedback on the Draft Parking Policy. We invite you to complete the
survey by one of the following options:
• Clicking here;
• Completing a hard copy at the Civic and Community Centre (66
Walkerville Terrace, Gilberton) during business hours.
Consultation begins 9am on Wednesday 8 September 2021 and concludes 5pm on
Friday 1 October 2021.

10 September 2021Open for consultation: external projects Scotty’s Corner Code Amendment Code Amendment summary On the 22 April 2021, the Minister for Planning and Local Government approved a proposal to initiate YS Super Investments Pty Ltd (Proponent) to rezone the land located on the south-east corner of Main North Road and Nottage Terrace, specifically 1- 5 Nottage Terrace, Medindie and 43 Main North Road, Medindie (Affected Area). The Affected Area is approximately 7,300 square metres in size and contains the Scotty’s Motel, two detached dwellings and vacant land. The Affected Area is currently zoned Suburban Business and Established Neighbourhood and is subject to a number of Overlays and Technical Numeric Variations (TNVs). The proposed rezoning seeks to zone the Affected Area as Urban Corridor (Business) Zone. The rezoning will provide for future development of the Affected Area, including by way of a mixed use development comprising commercial and medium density residential development up to a potential height of seven storeys.
