“Understand your residents and how they want to be engaged - then involve them in the process” Peter Tsokas - CEO of the City of Unley Council

The City of Unley is a local government area located directly south of the Adelaide central business district. Known for having some of the most lush suburbs in all of Australia, this was further evidenced when the region became one of only three Australian towns designated as a “Tree City of the World” by the United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization.
