More parklands trees face the chop under South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas's leadership than have been cut down since settlers first cleared the area in the 1840s, critics say. 🌳🌳🌳 If the government goes ahead with the redevelopment of the North Adelaide golf course, the premier says it will require the removal of 585 trees.
This is in addition to about 400 to be removed for the new Women's and Children's hospital (according to the Adelaide Park Lands Association (APLA), at least 45 for the Moto GP street circuit redevelopment, and about a dozen that were removed for the relocated Adelaide Aquatic Centre. APLA communications director Shane Sody said the last time this many trees were removed from the area was in the 1840s, when the parklands were cleared almost entirely by settlers.
