23.01.2022 At City of West Torrens we continue to work hard to keep your rates low. Once again, the 2nd lowest residential rates in metropolitan Adelaide.

22.01.2022 In coming weeks, you will see Enerven trucks in the streets around Ashford and Keswick as our street lights are upgraded to LED. As your Councillor, I have been pursuing the upgrade for some time, and it is great to see roll-out commence. LED public lights are a great investment, as they 1. Create jobs in South Australia 2. Reduce our electricity bill and carbon emissions, and 3. Improve public safety in our streets.... There is plenty more to come, with around 4,000 to be upgraded over the next few years.

22.01.2022 It is been a while since it rained, and with the extreme heat... if you have street tree outside your house, give your tree a drink.

18.01.2022 Residents have confirmed multiple car break-ins in Ashford and Keswick in recent times. Our two cars also :-( These have been overnight break-ins.
