MY SALISBURY
COUNCIL SERVICES
HIGHLIGHTED
ON FILM
EARLIER this year, Council embarked upon a short film
project involving the community. The film provides an
insight in to the vast range of different services that
Council provides for the Salisbury community.
‘Roads, rates and rubbish’! That’s what
Councils are mostly known for. But the City
of Salisbury hopes that a new short film will
help residents understand how rates are
used by Council to provide a huge variety of
different services, most of which are freely
accessible to local residents.
Involving local people and locations in and
around Salisbury, filming took place over three
days and shows how four characters access
the many different Council services during a
typical day living and working in Salisbury.
From our young adult, Crystal, who recycles
her papers and walks her dog in a local dog
park, to Sarah, our mum, who, after her son’s
tennis lesson at Salisbury Recreation Precinct,
visits the Mawson Lakes Library. We also see
Julio, a local resident and business owner,
highlighting the support Council provides for
businesses, and then Rup Kumar, an elderly
citizen who accesses our community centres
with the help of a volunteer driver.
The film, made by Kinetic Films, has been
given a voiceover describing some of the
highlights of Council services whilst additional
graphics point out some of the more detailed
aspects of services you receive and have
access to in Salisbury.
The City of Salisbury would like to thank
everyone involved in the film; Crystal Vas,
Salisbury Youth Council member; Julio
Cordero, local business owner; local residents
Sarah and Hudson Poppy, Rup Kumar
Ghaley, Sheryel and Trevor Donlon, Angela
and Gabriel Booth; Kamal Dahal volunteer
driver; members of the Filipino Walking
Group; members of the Penfield Tennis Club;
members of the Bhutanese community; and
staff and families of the City of Salisbury.
