We discuss with South Australia's flood recovery co-ordinator Alex Zimmermann the clean-up from the River Murray flooding of 2022-3, in particular the impact on Mid-Murray Council and its communities including shack owners, the caravan parks and public amenities. The Council in early March 2023 issued a press release indicating it was well short of the money it had budgeted for flood clean-up and would need state and or federal funding assistance with the huge task. Recent indications from locals are that the caravan parks will not be back open for the important March-April public holiday and Easter holidaymaking period, and there is talk of a fundraising event to show support for the region.
