Gawler Council have told local Member of Parliament, Mr Tony Piccolo he will have to pay the Council over $7,000 if he wants his freedom of information (FOI) application processed to obtain information about the civic centre redevelopment cost blowout.

Today (Saturday 20th October) marks one year since the closure of the Holden site at Elizabeth, as a result of the Federal Liberal Government driving the industry out of Australia.

A parliamentary committee has heard explosive evidence that the Gawler Council failed to go into bat for residents seeking improvements to the intersection of Coleman Parade and Potts Road with the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI).
