American River Structure Plan

The Kangaroo Island Council endorsed the American River Place Plan for public release at its meeting on 8 August 2023, following a community engagement and consultation process.

What is a Structure Plan?
A Structure Plan provides an overarching planning framework for the management and coordination of future growth opportunities, changes within the spatial contexts and infrastructure requirements.


Most importantly, a Structure Plan enables Council and the Community to set a vision that it desires to achieve, not one that will simply happen by natural means.


A Structure Plan highlights the likely demand for development based on trends and population scenarios. It establishes a conceptual blueprint based on principles of good town planning.
