Greening the Region
In partnership with the State Government and Targeted Lead Abatement Program (TLAP), a range of greening projects have
been identified.
The $6.1m Port Pirie Greening Strategy to be delivered over 4 years – the primary aim of this strategy is to minimise lead exposure pathways, however as a significant portion of this program will be delivered by Council, this will ensure that the newly greened areas will provide increased presentation value of our city as well as assisting in our response to climate variation.
The 2023/24 financial year will see approximately $2.4m committed to the greening of Phoenix Park wetlands which will also include walking and cycling trails, and the greening of the Church Circle Solomontown precinct as part of the plan to seal the footpaths in that area.
