As the land owner, the City of Adelaide needs to assess and approve your proposal. We do this by way of a simple nature strip application form (form to be filled in by owner of the property, landlord or Strata Title – body corporate). In every application, we will consider:

• If there are any utilities under the verge that may be affected (such as gas, phone, water or electricity lines)
• If there is space for placement of bins and access to parked vehicles
• If there is a clear line of sight for pedestrians and traffic
• That there are no potential trip-hazards and
• The landscaped character of the area

What support can the City of Adelaide offer me?

Once approved, the City of Adelaide can help your project by:

• Assisting with design ideas and horticultural advice based on landscaping guidelines
• Supply and install initial plants, soil, mulch or new instant turf to kick-start your project
• Supplying conduit (PVC pipe) from the nature strip to the property boundary only, for irrigation
