Adelaide residents have erupted over a proposal to build a Tesla factory on community land in the city’s southern suburbs, labelling the plan “a noisy, ugly, planet-destroying temple to billionaires”.

Locals were informed by Marion Council in April that selling off Chestnut Court Reserve in favour of the development of a battery factory, servicing facility and vehicle showroom for the Elon Musk-owned company would reap significant financial rewards.

The plan, however, was met with fierce opposition over the loss of public green space and tree coverage, and against the increasingly polarising Musk himself.

Roughly 90 per cent (897) of the near 1000 responses to Marion Council’s community consultation last month opposed the idea. Just 51 people were in favour.
