Yakka Determined for Lucindale
After a four-week voting campaign, the choice of Yakka to be installed on the new Lucindale town entrance statements has been determined by the community.
It can be revealed, after much anticipation, that Option 1 (pictured top left) is the most popular Yakka with the community, garnering a total of 81 votes out of a total 137 votes received.
Yakka Option 2 (pictured top right) received a total of 56 votes.
Yakka Option 1 is an extract of the Naracoorte Lucindale Council logo and the result of previous public consultation on the Town Entrance concept designs. The initial intent was to refresh and modernise the Yakka for installation and this option was voted the most popular at the time with 46.4% of the 72 submissions received.
This second round of voting reaffirms the previous voting results with a 59% preference for Option 1 and provides clarity on this issue for the community.
The Lucindale Town Entrance Statements project will now proceed to construction stage with new structures being erected at Gum Ave, Country Club Road and Avenue Road in Lucindale. The project has a budget of $60,000 for the 2022-2023 financial year.
In line with previous community consultation, the new entrance statements will be constructed by a local contractor and made from limestone with a corten steel Yakka attached.
The project is anticipated to commence before the end of the calendar year.
