The Yorke Peninsula and Mid North region is known for its rich agricultural heritage, stunning coastlines, and strong sense of community. The area is a significant contributor to the state’s economy, with its farmlands, tourism, and renewable energy projects such as wind and solar farms.
The Yorke Peninsula and Mid North Regional Plan identifies land and long-term infrastructure needs to support sustainable growth within the region, over a 15-to-30-year period. It reflects the unique and changing profile of the region’s population, environment and economy across its vast rural areas and varied townships.
Background
The Commission, with support from Planning and Land Use Services, is preparing six new country regional plans for South Australia:
- Kangaroo Island
- Yorke and Mid North
- Eyre and Western
- Far North
- Limestone Coast
- Murray Mallee.
These plans play an important role in guiding sustainable growth by identifying land use and long-term infrastructure over a 15 to 30-year period. They outline where new housing and employment areas will be located, how services will be delivered, and what infrastructure is needed while exploring different growth scenarios.
In 2023, Visioning Workshops were held in Clare and Maitland to gather insights to support the initial development of the Plan. Stakeholders unable to attend the workshops were invited to provide feedback through a survey hosted on the YourSAy platform. You can read more about the community’s insights in the What We Heard Report.
The information collected during the workshops and the YourSAy survey have informed the development of the Plan.
