Fort Largs

In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS (8 June 2016).

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): South Australia Police can confirm that the agent responsible for the sale of the old Academy site is Renewal SA. The Minister for Police remains the owner of the site.

Renewal SA remains responsible for the disposal of the site and, following an expression of interest sale process, has selected preferred proponents for both the development of the residential land and the ownership, restoration and adaptive reuse of the Fort.

As announced on 17 June 2016, AVJennings will develop the residential land and, as part of the deed, the State Heritage listed fort will be retained and the National Trust will be responsible for the restructure, maintenance and future use of the Fort.
