For more information and to book, go to the History Festival website here.

Census of Land Use & Employment 2016
The Adelaide City Council will have survey staff contacting every business and organisation in the City between April and June this year to identify land use and employment statistics, with the results used in the Council's planning of services. This information is strictly confidential, is not shared with anyone outside the ACC and there is no obligation for businesses to participate.
The Census of Land Use and Employment is a statistical snapshot of the city’s employment, industries, land use, parking and venue capacities, and affects budgets for capital works, transport, programs and services. As such, the more businesses contribute, the better informed the ACC is, and subsequently, better decisions are then made.
If you have any questions please contact either Cate Moore via email here or Ph.82037527

Community Forum Wed Apr 27
The Bendigo Bank will host a Community Forum on Wed April 27 at the Terrace of Bendigo Bank's head office at 80 Grenfell St at 6pm. The Forum will be a chance for attendees to provide ideas on Community needs and expand on the goodwill shown by numerous Precinct and Community Groups who expressed interest in funding and supporting ideas that benefit the wider community.
The Forum will focus on topics such as social and educational needs, as well as support for the aged, youth, homeless and the disadvantaged. The aim will be to agree on one or two projects where the Bendigo Bank will contribute $5000 to start. Contributions from other community groups, precincts and The Adelaide City Council will be sought.
City South has been offered a number of places at this event, so if any members are wishing to attend, please contact the coordinator here.
