On Monday evening 24 March about 50 people attended Linde Reserve to discuss the Arts Eco Park with members of the Friends of Linde Reserve/Dunstone Grove. Those who attended included local residents, 3D Radio listeners worried about the future of the station and the weekly live concerts it offers and others who use the reserve on a regular basis. Everyone was keen to hear about the alternative to Council's draft master plan for the reserve and feedback about the alternative plan was overwhelmingly positive.
Although it retains many features of Council's draft master plan, including the naturalisation of Second Creek and the addition of playground and other amenities, the Friends' proposal for the precinct differs from Council's plan in several key areas. Our vision retains key built heritage elements that make the reserve unique in Adelaide, provides for the existing community groups to remain as a vibrant presence in the park and offers genuinely active and innovative spaces for communal activities including a community garden and amphitheatre. You can view our alternative plan here.

Great to see the community turn out at such short notice. It frustrates the hell out me that Council cannot see what a fantastic resource it has in all those community groups. Imagine what it would cost to establish something like this. And yet here is this council doing its best to destroy a really unique space and disperse a bunch of vibrant community groups.
