In 2020, Alexandrina Council began to investigate whether or not there was a need for a strategic direction specific to heritage. Over the coming years, research and statistics were compiled along with the development of a draft series of principles for the management and activation of heritage within Alexandrina. At their meeting 16 May 2022, the Heritage Alexandrina Background and Research Paper 2022 was presented to Council and received. You can read a copy of the Background and Research Paper here. At this same meeting, Council endorsed the development of a written heritage strategy, Heritage Alexandrina. The Strategy was completed in 2023 and endorsed by Council at their meeting held 20 November 2023. The Alexandrina Council Heritage Strategy and Action Plan 2023-2030 can be viewed here.
