Disappointing to say the least, a real opportunity gone begging in the Rural City. I can see Mannum jumping right onto this.

It needs to be rezoned along with the rest of Eastside as the whole area has changed. We should not lose this opportunity. Both sides of the river make the Rural City what it is today and what it will be in the future. Find a way to make it happen is the challenge if all the parties bring their contributions. Think in a posative way and address the concerns.

Do we seriously want this rural city to become a tourism hub or simply a backwater to Mannum? As for the area being in the river flood zone, well that has not stopped holiday homes being constructed in river murray flood zone areas in and around the town. The objectors really need to look outside their own interests and at the bigger picture if they want this rural city to develop.

“We cannot afford for our successful agricultural business to be affected."

If you can't control the water in your paddocks, you don't deserve river front agriculture. Plenty of others do it.
