Consultation has concluded

Council staff have commenced a coordinated planning exercise to assist the community and key stakeholder groups to realise the potential for improved protection and management, controlled access and use of Yantaringa Reserve and the unnamed Section 693 on Fairview Road, Hahndorf.

The intent of the management plan is to:

  • Improve and enhance the protection of Yantaringa Reserve as a vital area of native remnant vegetation.
  • Reduce / formalise trails through Yantaringa Reserve in the long term.
  • Activate Section 693 for improved community use for walking, mountain biking and trail running.
  • Improve signage for education and identification of space purposes.
  • Consider improved traffic management to the site and car parking within the site.
  • Coordinate revegetation projects throughout the reserves.

The draft plan has been developed to a point where it is considered suitable to form the basis of community consultation and following endorsement by Mount Barker Council at its meeting on 6 July 2020 we are now seeking stakeholder and community feedback.

The draft plan seeks to understand and confirm the priorities of the key stakeholder groups such as Trees for Life and the broader community.
