A deck or pergola has to suit where it is built. Here is the local context we factor in for projects in Nangkita.
Nangkita is about 22 km north-west of Goolwa and about 60 km south of Adelaide, bordered by Yundi, Mount Magnificent, Ashbourne, Mount Observation, Tooperang and Mount Compass. Its 1890s village settlement was set up under a South Australian government scheme intended to ease the effects of the depression then affecting the colony. The commune grew a strong tobacco crop, but its potato and onion crops were damaged by grubs, and it closed not long afterwards.
Nangkita is a small rural locality about 8 kilometres east of Mount Compass, first settled in the 1890s as a government village settlement. Nangkita Creek, part of the Tookayerta Creek catchment, runs through the district, and part of Cox Scrub Conservation Park, with its stringybark and low wooded hills, lies within the locality. Well inland from the coast, it is largely clear of salt exposure, but the mix of creek country, bush and cleared paddocks means site conditions often differ between blocks. Decks and pergolas here are typically planned around the lie of the land and the bush setting, with footings and drainage suited to the ground.
Around Nangkita's bush and creek country, decks, verandahs and pergolas are assessed under South Australia's Planning and Design Code. Whether a particular deck needs development approval varies: many do, while smaller low set ones can be exempt. Alexandrina Council is the local planning authority, and applications are lodged through the state PlanSA system. We are glad to help you find out what your project needs.
