Dear Friends and Owners of Unley,

 Summer is coming and Unley continues to lose trees. Unless we change what we are doing, the children of Unley will experience summer days of well over 50°C temperature. 12°C hotter than now. In the newsletter are letters from residents putting the Council on the spot.    “If council members are worried about losing votes for this charge, I can assure you that there would be an equal, if not greater, number of residents who would give their total support, who in fact are crying out for action! So, what are you, as the mayor, planning to do about it?”  The link for the answer is a click on  Inner Suburban Tree Canopy – Let’s Get Real!  We require the SA Minister for Planning’s signature to implement our City of Unley proposed solution.

Some good news…

Open Space:  Council has recognised that the biggest unfunded need caused by the high rise and infill growth is our reducing open space / per person….   See the newsletter story and our solution to meet this need.

The Parking plan for all of Unley :

$3,000 and $6,000 grants available to many Unley residents.

Footpath Budget review:

 A great annual family event is coming on Sunday, December 10^th.  Christmas is coming fast and our Unley Rotary Club is running our Christmas Carols in the Memorial Gardens. We owe so much to those in Unley who voluntarily give to make Unley a joyful place to live, share, and enjoy. Thank you, Unley Rotary.

Wishing you all a joyful,  wonder-filled Christmas, a relaxed summer season, and a prosperous new Year,

 With my best wishes,

                          Michael
