We were made aware of a historic encroachment that exists over 7 properties adjacent to Robin Road, Semaphore. This encroachment exists over portions of land defined as ‘Road’ and identified as Robin Road in Deposition Plan 425.

A report was presented to Council in February 2021, which outlined and endorsed options to deal with these encroachments. Council resolved those owners of properties encroaching on to Council road reserve be offered the opportunity to either participate in, and share the cost of the road closure process, and to purchase the subject land at nil consideration.

To correct this encroachment, 5 property owners have agreed to enter into a proposed road closure process for portions of land that is currently defined as road. The two remaining properties with encroachments have decided to relocate their private infrastructure.

For more information, please see the map below or Preliminary Plan under the Document Library.

A copy of the plan and statement of persons affected are available for public inspection at the City of PAE’s Civic Centre located at 163 St Vincent Street Port Adelaide SA 5015 between the hours of 8.30am and 5.00pm, Monday to Friday.
