Notice is hereby given that the Town of Gawler, pursuant to Sections 24 and 25 of the Development Act 1993, has prepared a Development Plan Amendment Report (DPA) to amend its Development Plan.

The amendment proposes changes to the Gawler (CT) Development Plan to transition 150 Contributory Items to Local Heritage Places. This involves the updating of Table Ga/5 Local Heritage Places and Table Ga/6 Contributory Items, including changes to maps (Figures GA(HPCI)/3, 5, 6, 9, 10 and 11) showing the location of heritage places.

The DPA report will be on public consultation from Thursday 3rd December 2020 until Thursday 25th February 2021. A copy of the DPA report will be available to view or purchase during normal office hours at the Town of Gawler Administration Centre, 43 High Street, Gawler East during the consultation period. Alternatively the DPA report can be viewed online at www.gawler.sa.gov.au. or HERE

A public workshop will be held on Wednesday 10th February 2021 by appointment at the Gawler Civic Centre, 89-91 Murray Street, Gawler.

Written submissions regarding the DPA should be submitted no later than 5.00 pm on Thursday 25th February 2021. All submissions should be addressed to the Chief Executive Officer, Town of Gawler, PO BOX 130, Gawler SA 5118 and should clearly indicate whether you wish to be heard in support of your submission at the public hearing. If you wish to lodge your submission electronically, please email it to council@gawler.sa.gov.au.

A public hearing will be held on Tuesday 16th March 2021 at 7:00pm in the Council Chamber, Gawler Civic Centre, 89-91 Murray Street, Gawler, at which time interested persons may be heard in relation to the DPA and their submissions. The public hearing may not be held if no submissions are received or if no submission makes a request to be heard. Please note that due to ongoing COVID-19 concerns, the format of the public hearing (i.e. whether in person or on-line) will not be determined until consultation is closed in case the hearing is required to be conducted on-line rather than with a physical presence.

Copies of all submissions will be available for inspection at the Town of Gawler Administration Centre, 43 High Street, Gawler East, following the consultation period until the conclusion of the public hearing.

If you would like further information about the DPA, or to arrange an appointment time for the public workshop on 10th February 2021, please contact Development Assessment Planner, Jessica Lewig on 8522 9279.
