Spies, Secrets, Clandestine Operations and the St Peters Town Hall like something from a John le Carre novel!’
In late December 1962, on a scorcher of a day, an attractive woman waited outside the St Peters Town Hall, a double agent, she was part of an ASIO sting to uncover a ring of Soviet spies. But who was really watching who?
The St Peters Residents Association Incorporated (SPRA) was formed in 1972.
At that time the Constitution was agreed to by the members and registered under the then current legislation for Incorporated Associations.
The 1972 Constitution has not been amended since that time, and is still the one that governs the activities of SPRA.
Since 1972 there have been changes to the Incorporated Associations Act and Regulations that require the Constitution to be updated to comply.

The Resident Associations of the Dunstan Electorate are jointly hosting a Meet the Candidates event in early March.
The candidates standing for election in this electorate have been invited to outline their vision for our area, and state what they see as the vital issues.
This is our chance to find out what those who aspire to represent us stand for. There will also be an opportunity to ask the candidates questions to help inform our decision on polling day.

The fabric of St Peters, College Park, Hackney, Joslin, Stepney, and Maylands may be changed forever with the adoption of the State Government’s Planning and Design Code, which is out for public consultation until February 28th. It collapses all Council development plans into one on-line planning portal. It appears to be a “one-size-fits-all” and “lowest-common- denominator” approach.
Thanks to all those who were among the estimated 500 people who attended the Peoples Forum on Wednesday 18th September in the Norwood Concert Hall. The speakers, including two planning experts from Sydney and Melbourne, outlined the issues that heritage will face under the new Planning & Design Code, and offered some constructive alternative suggestions.
This is the first SPRA Newsletter for some time, however the Association has continued to maintain a watching brief over Government and Council policy issues, and to consider matters that affect our Council area such as the planning changes being forced on to inner suburban councils, by the State Government.
During the year particular effort has been put into the St Peters Heroes Memorial project which will shortly be complete.
