Paint Ya Pole

Do you want to be creative and make a difference in your local neighbourhood? That’s awesome – as we're inviting PAE residents and groups to paint their local stobie poles!

It's easy to get involved.

  1. Firstly, take a full-length photo of the pole/s you wish to paint (making sure that you do not cut off the top or the bottom of the pole)
  2. Fill in your details, the location of the pole/s that you would like to paint and attach your photo/s on the SA Power Networks (SAPN) online application form here
  3. Once you have received permission from SAPN, please complete this online form on our website and attach your SAPN approval and concept drawing of what you are planning on painting
  4. It is important to consult with your neighbours, so they know that you intending to paint a pole. We are making this step super easy as you can download and print this Neighbour consent letter (PDF, 102.55 KB), fill it out and pop into your neighbour’s letterbox, so that you can make them aware and to get their support. (Please note that if someone objects to the idea, it may not be possible to proceed and SAPN reserves the right to paint over any pole that doesn’t comply with their criteria).
  5. When you receive the all clear from the City of PAE to proceed with painting your pole/s, you will have access to some free paint to complete your pole and anti-graffiti coating to protect it, thanks to our Paint bank. All you need to provide is a couple of brushes and your creativity!
