Seaside Estate, Moana

471 Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (5 May 2021). What action has occurred to ensure that the development of the Seaside Estate at Moana is complying with all development conditions regarding dust mitigation and/or other environmental concerns?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government):

I have been advised that the Local Nuisance and Litter Control Act 2016 (the Act) formalises the role of local government in managing nuisance issues including those arising through construction activity, consistent with council's role as the relevant approval authority. Under the act, which falls under the portfolio responsibilities of the Minister for Environment and Water, the Hon David Speirs MP, councils are the principal authorities for dealing with local nuisances.

As such, the act provides a suitable mechanism to address nuisance issues associated with local dust generation caused by construction through the City of Onkaparinga.
