Who/what is SARPRA ?
​​SARPRA was formed when the Residential Parks Bill became The Residential Parks Act 2007.  SARPRA advocates on behalf of all its members for the best possible living conditions in Residential Parks.
​SARPRA does not represent/recommend any particular park/village, however, the Committee can assist potential residents to make an informed decision regarding which park/village may suit their particular requirements, ​(Dedicated residential parks (manufactured homes, permanent residence).

Specifically this is what SARPRA does:

1. Represent the interests of residents of South Australian    Residential Parks in as many forums as possible; 
2. Provide a forum for residents and Residents' Committees to exchange ideas that may assist residents of their Park;
3. Maintain contact with similar organisations in Australia; 
4. Encourage State authorities to consult the residents of Parks and SARPRA prior to  changing the current Act; 
5. Consult with South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT); Respond to invitations by local Residents' Committees for a meeting; and, 
​6. Assist Managers of Residential Parks to instigate facilities and procedures helpful to residents

Australian Energy Regulator Information on embedded Power Supply
In some sites(typically caravan parks, retirement villages or apartment blocks) the electrical wiring is designed to enable the owner of the site to sell energy to their residents based there. This is known as an embedded network.
If you buy energy from an exempt seller, you are an exempt customer and you have protection under the law.
