What will happen to RAAF Officer Ian Stoeckel’s Memorial in the rose garden?

    The memorial will be relocated to the garden at Edwardstown Soldiers’ Memorial Recreation Ground. This will place it in a more appropriate setting at which ANZAC Day dawn services are held. Council consulted with the Stoeckel family and the RSL, who both support this decision. The memorial will be expanded to include additional biographical information. A dedication ceremony is being planned for later this year in partnership with the RSL.

    Why would trees be planted on the boundary with South Road?

    This responds to community feedback to increase foliage and will screen the road from the oval.

    Will a broader precinct plan be developed?

    The precinct plan will be developed with community consultation as part of Council's next four-year business plan in 2023.
