Dry Zones

Marion City Council periodically reviews its six Dry Zones and is currently seeking community input into the process.

Dry Zones are public areas that have been declared alcohol-free in order to reduce alcohol related public disorderly behaviour. The City of Marion has six Dry Zones, located at:

Hallett Cove Shopping Centre (24 hours)
Capella REserve Hallett Cove (8pm -8am)
Coastal Walking Trail (24 hours)
The Foreshore at Heron Way Hallett Cove (8pm - 8am)
Olivier Terrace Reserve in Hallett Cove (8pm -8am)
Westfield Shopping Precinct (24 hours)

The City Council is inviting resident input into the Dry Zone review. Perhaps, for example, it occurs to you, as it does to me, that there is great dry zone allocation in the south of the city but nothing in the central or northern areas.

If you want to participate or require additional information, contact the Community Safety Officer at Marion Council on 8375 6619.

Our church talks about Social Justice quite a bit. Justice relates to local activism as much as global issues and this could be a way that we can promote safety and security for our local community.
