If council becomes aware that the agreed timeframe, budget or project deliverables cannot be met, the Open Space Team must be notified in writing, no fewer than six weeks before the specified funding period is due to end. Council will need to provide reasons for the delay, budget implications or variation to agreed scope, including a proposed solution and revised timeframe to complete the land purchase. All requests to vary Grant Deeds and Land Management Agreements will be at the Department’s discretion and councils must not assume their request will be approved.
The Department for Housing and Urban Development acknowledges and respects Aboriginal peoples as the state's First Peoples and nations and recognises Aboriginal peoples as Traditional Owners and occupants of lands and waters in South Australia.
