Then forget it..

The Vic government in their wisdom?:confused: , have passed a bill that destroys many peoples dreams of building on a country block.

I dont like to get political, I usually dont give a toss about politics, but thank goodness we are coming up for a state election, never mind the tree change, its time for a poly change.

Read on...... (http://www.theage.com.au/news/national/planning-shift-shatters-rural-dreams/2006/02/25/1140670303226.html)this from the Melbourne age today.

And here I am thinking about doing this, I pity the poor bastards who have already bought a block.

As you said, I pity the people that have bought land like the bloke at the end of the article. There are councils in SE QLD that are doing similar things. I know near Warwick, the council has had complaints from people that have built next to long established farm land that the dust is bothering them. Fortunately for the farmers the council is saying that they should've thought of that before the built the house.
