The Team

In August 2018 the Marino Residents Association officially changed its name to the 5049 Coastal Community Association Incorporated. As part of that process a new constitution was prepared and registered in South Australia.

The 2019-20 elected steering committee comprises a small dedicated group of locals who have a passion for the 5049 community. Together they represent the members, manage the Association and facilitate interaction with the community, local councils and elected members on issues; all under the guidance of the constitution and 2020-25 strategic plan.

LIZ SADLER
Committee 2021 - 22

DAVID MOLLISON
Committee 2021 - 22

Liz is passionate about volunteering and the difference it makes to the community, particularly those with a disadvantage. She has been a resident of Seacliff and SA for just three years but a fair track record of volunteering contribution made in that time. Strong background in the management of community services and business.

The poetry of Marino has been with me since I was a kid… the apparent remoteness and sense of adventure in a coastal playground.

Now returned I am pleased to be involved in the community. I am an architect and have a strong interest in urban planning, landscape, and cultural history. I swim and get to the beach at every opportunity.

Communication, environment, open space, sustainability and identifying with the many unique aspects of the Coastal Community and traditional place of the Kaurna people inspire me to give what I can to keeping that special poetry alive.
