Dear Minister,
COMPLAINTS TO MINISTER REGARDING NOOSA SHIRE COUNCIL
I have made serious allegations regarding the Noosa Shire Council
and published them on my website at, http://www.noosarealtor.com
. The website can also be found at,
http://www.discover-noosa.com
http://www.tradepractices.com
http://www.trade-practices.com
http://www.noosapropertyshop.com
This Council, its Mayor and Councillors have been aware of these
developing allegations for some time now since selling a property
to my daughter in trade and commerce, as the evidence to support
the allegations has become available to me.
Over the past 6 months this Council that you are responsible for,
has done very little to constructively address these matters that
I complain of and has in fact aggravated the matters by what I
perceive to be insults to my intelligence, delays, lying to me
in writing, failing to admit its false, misleading & deceptive
conduct, compounding that conduct, blaming myself and my daughter
for the problems it initiated and now simply laying dormant and
refusing to reasonably supply me with information or Council Records
that I have requested.
The purpose of this letter is:
|
|
to try and avoid legal proceedings being filed
by myself and then by my daughter against this Council (and
others); and |
|
|
to try and avoid the resultant tarnishing
of the Noosa Region's reputation, that this Council is bringing
upon the Noosa Region it administers. |
My allegations to date as currently published on my website, are
as follows :
|
1.
|
Agents Report of Jill Burke and Noosa Property
Shop FALSELY REPRESENTING on behalf of the NOOSA SHIRE COUNCIL
that this house is 170 square metres in size when it is
in fact less than 142 square metres.

|
2.
|
ANOTHER FALSE REPRESENTATION of 170 square
metres made by a Noosa Property Shop on behalf of the NOOSA
SHIRE COUNCIL via an internet publication on www.RealEstate.com.au
http://www.noosarealtor.com/internet-ad.html |
|
3.
|
We shall see written evidence made by Noosa
Council and provided by Noosa Property Shop as to how the
renovated bathrooms were represented to be compliant with
the Building Code of Australia 2006 (BCA) and compliant
with the Noosa Shire Council's own Building Conditions when
in fact, in contravention of those requirements, the bathroom
floor drains are the highest points in the floors forcing
water to flow to the bathroom edges and then leak through
the unsealed floors, and then through the timber flooring
and over electrical wiring. Video evidence is being prepared
of how Noosa Council certifies illegal building work to
suit its own purposes.

|
4.
|
We shall see written evidence by Noosa Council
and provided by Noosa Property Shop that represented that
there was wall insulation to the re-lined walls when there
was none and how Noosa Council failed to provide wall insulation
as required by the BCA and its own Building Conditions and
then KNOWINGLY LIED in writing as to BCA compliance
after a Noosa Council manager and supervisor inspected the
walls. |
|
5.
|
We shall see evidence of the Noosa Council
provision of a MISLEADING & DECEPTIVE statutory
Form 21 Final Building Inspection Certificate during the
30 day conveyancing period, which in fact did deceive the
purchaser, her family, her agent and lessee. |
|
6.
|
Noosa Property Shop DENYING THE UNDENIABLE
http://www.noosarealtor.com/denial.html |
|
7.
|
We shall see written evidence of false representations
by Noosa Council and provided by Noosa Property Shop that
a concrete slab under the house was 200mm thick and constructed
to engineers specifications (which in fact don't exist). |
|
8.
|
We shall see evidence of how the telephone
was represented to be connected to the property when there
was in fact no Telstra infrastructure in place which took
a month to rectify after the new owner and lessee moved
in who were told by Noosa Council to effectively get lost
when a complaint was made. |
|
9.
|
We shall see video
evidence of the water delivery pump for the house which
was supposedly new, running like a old tractor and the new
owner and lessee being told by Noosa Council to effectively
get lost when a complaint was made. |
|
10.
|
We shall see evidence of how the despotic
Noosa Council and their idiot lawyer aggravates and continues
to aggravate the situation thus providing grounds for a
claim of aggravated damages. |
|
11.
|
We shall see written evidence of how the Noosa
Council, its Mayor, Chief Executive Officer and Director
of Business, seek to protect the Noosa Council and their
own butts by arranging a confidentiality agreement. |
|
12.
|
We shall see evidence of how the Noosa Council
has withheld Council Records contrary to Freedom of Information
legislation and Building Records Search for conveyancing
purposes, and how it continues to arrogantly disrupt the
provision of these Council Records. |
|
13.
|
We shall see how the Noosa Council refused
to apportion the rates charged to the new owner of the property
and sought to charge her rates for a period that the Noosa
Council owned the property. The new owner's conveyancing
lawyer had to be re-engaged to sort out Noosa Council's
belligerent conduct. |
|
14.
|
And there's a whole lot more to come.....
but we are hoping that we don't see evidence of a visit
from the KKK. |
