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.

Volunteer Opportunities
There are currently 3 vacancies on the steering committee for:
  • Secretary/ Administration
  • Media 
  • General Members (2)

There are also vacancies to support the Task Groups:
  • City of Marion Liaison and review
