The Department of Planning and Local Government and Sport (DPLGS) plays a lead role in the creation and maintenance of strong, sustainable communities and in guiding South Australia’s growth and development. We achieve this through the development of strategic plans for Greater Adelaide and the regions, our collaboration with key partners, our involvement in the community, our focus on governance and provision of advice. Our work contributes to the achievement of the targets in South Australia's Strategic Plan aimed at growing prosperity, improving wellbeing, attaining sustainability, building communities and expanding opportunity.
