[MRB37]

This was on 7 on the amount of people who responded to the survey saying they opposed the plan


We're jumping through hoops for less than 1% of the residents in the council area.

I wonder how many of the 395 were Port supporters?

It would be nice to know what their issues are and how many times have they used the current park. How many live in the area.

PA had a lot of resident objectors on the AO project but were shoved aside.

I would have used brushed aside sort of goes hand in hand with their team come finals time

Sounds like it was successfully voted through Council last night (8-4)

Apparently Geoff Brock granted the Council an exemption which gave them the ability to vote on it.

the double standards in Adelaide is astonishing. Port Adelaide residents were dead set opposed to the redevelopment of Alberton because of the massive loss of public space and decreased access. The media and the council didn't even listen at all to the residents and just moved ahead. Compare the difference. The media went out of their way to find opposition to the crows move, even Rowie and Tim had to interview a s**t small soccer club affected. Like come on.

If I was a resident, id demand those 4 who voted against it, remove themselves from being on the council. Obviously they have no business being on a council if they can't look at fixing a completely useless area.

First time for everything I guess

This is surely a timelapse video of use over a whole year.

Just saw this but its paywall

Crows score big goal in quest to build $85m new nest Adelaide Crows boss Tim Silvers has clinched a groundbreaking deal to spend $85m on a new club headquarters by personally offering an “olive branch” to disgruntled residents. READ MORE

Adelaide Crows one step closer to Thebarton Oval headquarters

Adelaide Crows chairman John Olsen said the club would now work on its master plan, which will be sent back to council next year for consideration.

How? Teach me

Buy another car, then have the cars compete against each other for your affection.

Some of the melts on the comments on InDaily are hilarious - particularly the guy begging for an ICAC investigation.

Ultimately, 99% of residents are for this. The 1% against this just need to shut up and let this happen.

1% of the residents in the council area.

That is the NIMBYs small in number but very loud in voice, they come out of the trailer park and shout from the rooftops.

Also they are opposing it despite 1% of responses being against the proposal. So they are not even representing the majority of their voters

 

[GameofSloanes]

What an embarrassment to themselves

Hilariously the area they are sitting will be demolished due to the South Rd works, not due to us

Well at least we now have a site.

I assume home SANFL games now too?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Will the oval have a roof?

Never read the comments.

Members were emailed this, but I'll post the link here

Never read the comments.

Sometimes it's good for comedic value - case in point the NIMBY's carrying on about this development

Now comes the next attack phase.

What do you mean
Member 3330 on the Port board claims the double standards are pro Crows, anti Port
