Over many years Council has intended to manage the growing numbers of the Pied Cormorants in the district.

To establish a long-term solution to manage the issue, Council is working with Ecosure to explore solutions and create a Cormorant Management Strategy.

Council is seeking feedback from the community about their experiences with the Pied Cormorant and the locations they may have witnessed growing populations.

Yorke Peninsula, Copper Coast and Barunga West Councils are holding a forum to provide community members an opportunity to have their say about the Cormorant Control Programme.

The forum will be held on Tuesday 18 October 2022 at 1pm at the Council Chamber, 57 Main Street, Minlaton.

Due to room capacity please RSVP by Friday 14 October 2022 to admin@yorke.sa.gov.au or phone Executive Assistant to Director Development Services, Maddy Pulling on 8832 0000.

Alternatively feedback can be provided via the community survey for Pied Cormorant. The survey closes on 30 October 2022.
