1.4 Policy Positions

1.4.1 Consultation and Engagement

Advice and consultation with Council and the community
will be based around meaningful engagement, to
support events and the local community to build valuable
relationships and to minimise consultation fatigue. Affected
community members will be notified as far as possible of
the upcoming event.

Council’s Noise Mitigation Standard Operating Procedures
(the SOPs) requires significant notification and engagement
to be undertaken prior to Council approval. Notification
areas have been established to ensure adequate
information and prior notice is provided to the community
around event sites, as are outlined in the SOPs.

Council may legally grant an event licence for up to 5 years
under the Local Government Act 1999 (the LG Act) without
undertaking public consultation, provided that such a lease
or licence is authorised by the relevant Community Land
Management Plan (CLMP).

As such, Council is required to have a suitable approval
process in place to ensure that each event lease or
licence is assessed and determined as being consistent
with the requirements of the relevant Community
Land Management Plan and the Adelaide Park Lands
Management Strategy. Adherence to this process will
ensure all approved event leases or licences comply
with section 202(6) of the Local Government Act.

Council’s Community Land Management Plan allows
for events in the Park Lands where the use is:
• Consistent with the objectives of management
  of the Park
• Provides community benefit
• Supports the outdoor recreational use of the
  Park Lands and
• Is consistent with the Adelaide Park Lands
  Management Strategy.
