Housing and contractors acting on behalf of housing have threatened me, stood over me and harrassed me. They demanded I move all my outside belongings but not offered a valid reason why nor a place to put it safely. The illegal destruction of my items has caused me untold damage.
Housing has destroyed my belongings and throw aaround valuable items which have been left out in the weather that were previously undercover.
Housing has refused to save my religious shrine and garden and without notice demoloshed it with a bulldozer.
housing then left the discarded and broken remnants out in the yard visible to me but unablre to be reached where I am banned from going by threat of legal action.
this is a huge respectful slap in the face for me and my religion and this land and its people. Part of the shrine was in honour of my first husband. he was called “The Kaiditcha Man” by local indigenous people.
All of the tenants here at 69 Alice Street are over 55. Most are in their 70s, 80s, or 90s. All are marginalized and most have been for their lifetime.
The majority of these aged and elderly residents are disabled or suffer age related issues with mobility hearing and so on.
Last week contractors illegally knocked at the door of number 6 and demanded that they move everything out of their garden shed within two hours or it was going to be bulldozed and all taken to the tip.
I watched an 81 year old disabled man panic and use his mobility scooter hooked up to a trailer to get the items moved. It is a wonder he didnt have a heart attack. They didnt know there rights they were not informed. Davemcconnell had no warning and the contractors had no right. this is a huge breach by housing of all our rights.
The residents of number 6 are both disabled one is 50 and his father is 82 with dementia symptoms such as wandering around the complex showing other residents his old drivers licence a.nd pension card. He is in grave danger because of his deafness and dementia with this construction going on.
the property is called mountainview apartments but houding has kicked sand in our faces and insulted us and all before by blocking our mountain view with the construction and fnished product to come. I protest my view outside being interferred with and blocked in any way.
The trees that are my life line for healing and shrine of barry and my mother goddess that fill daily with hindreds of different species of australian bird are scheducled to be destroyed this is disgusting and a crime against this land and nation.
I am a domestic vioolence survivor and the trees are an integral part of my healing and safety plan
the trees block my home from the view of paul in 12 and garry in ten both of whome have assaulted or abused me this year.
These trees are my peace and housing is interferring with my peace by the threat of destroying them
the trees are my only shade from morning sun. I do not use shades as I love the nature outlook
the trees are healthy and contribute to the peace of all of us.
the trees educate thousands of people the world over with my passion for the birds and filming them with some knowledge for the viewers these are very popular and the community is in uproar about the desciion to destroy them for no valid reason but a misguided city designer.
It is disgusting that this government holds us residents of this complex in such negligent careless disregard flaunting and breaking their own rules and laws and completely destroying lives.
On Thursday I recorded a video with one of the contractors asking what had been done with a garden that housing had no right to destroy. The conversation by the contractors contained information that is in breach of privacy information laws.
This conversation highlights the extreme damage that housing has done to me. The laughing condescending attitude of the contractor was horrific. It followed an illegal act that has caused more extreme damage not only psychologiscally but to my most treasured items and religious shrines.
In that same conversation I was told “I had to take it up with housing” when i commented they had no right. This is a problem for us at the complex. It is a security breach especiallyt for someone like me who has DV orders on perpetrators.
Housing has failed me in it’s duty of care to take into consideration my disabilities this goes as far as ignoring my preferred communication methods
Housinf has a copy of my psychiatric report which shows the extreme CPTSD i suffer. This has not only been ignored by housingh it has been thrown in my face.
Housing has ignored my medical disabilities. I have furnished housing with information about my extreme allergies see email dated . this once again has been thrown in my face by housing with this act of renovations that I believe is illegal under disability and rta laws.
Housing has place piles and piles of dirt and other foreign material in my backyard knowing i have extreme allergies. this feels another laugh in my face by housing. I am appalled that my health is so casually disregarded.
None of us get any peace with cement jackhammers and drills going all day. the noise is unbearing
Housing was and is illegally in my home as I type this at 30pm 5th of June 2025. I had not and still have not been furnished with any notice of entry form 9 notices. Not one,
These are required by law to be furnished each entry, each day of entry a separate notice. This is a huge breach by housing
Housing has no right to move ahead with this mojor renovation on several fronts. The law is specific on renovation being carried out during tenancies.
Although this complex is not a certified retirement complex, housing has proved by current and past actions that this is not the truth. Housing is creating a retirement complex without abiding by rules and regulations and laws and acts of queensland including the aged care act. Housing admits to excluding those under the age of 55 from the complex. This is reflected in my complaint to housing in 2022 which clearly shows me being discriminated against.
The residents have been subject to great deception from housing, being blocked from accessing the plans up to 8th of may and not knowing anything about the renovation nor been consulted or asked what the residents need for their disabilities and medical needs.
When asking questions residents are diverted and smothered by all directions at once and unable to gain clear advice.
We have not been consulted not treated with the respect we cdeserve especially as these are our permanent homes and we are senoir disabled ill residents.
housing has taken advantage of the tenants vulnerabilities and lack of education to commit illegal acts
i am told my water tank is being disconnected for 5 days. this is illegal to disconnect our drinking water supply.
this is also
the residents are being treated as disposable which is clear in the conversation recorded 6th of may with Courtney Rynee of Housing bundberg where she discusses the renovations being ready for the next tenant. 99 percent of residents leave her for the last time in the ambulance. There have been multiple deaths at the complex since 2022. This was dehumanizing behaviour by Courtney and ultimately the government of queensland
residents are being told NOW with no prior warning that gardens and yards they have spent years tending to are just going to be bulldozed (as mine was last week) No offers have been extended by housing to assist the other disabled pensioners with this
it has not been explained WHY our complex is in such a desperate need and rush without that consultation, instead we get a queens visit by a very rude person who treated each person like animals.
Courtney took two steps back and put her hands behind her when I walked up to meet her the first time. I was made to feel like I was a piece of dirt and the contractors have very visibly taken their cue from Courtney.. this has started a campaign of discusting power over residents
my dog Nitro was poisoned by bill in number 13 two years ago. I have told housing this and reported it to rspca. He is dying and can barely walk or swollow. it had been arranged i would have my friends pure bred kelpie pup here with nitro in his last days to train him up alongside him. This has proved to be a nightmare with the construction mess so suddenly thrown on us
this has ruined the pup as he has no yard or space to run in, he is asssaulted by loud noises all day and to a keplie this is torture and he is disturbed within his perimeter all day by random contractorsa and vehicles. At teh speed the vehicles go he is in danger as he is reduced to space out the front
we have been lied to. I have spoken to maintenance and glenn from Qbuild told me my back verandah ceiling that was leaking water down inisde and outside my bedroom wall would be sealed when we got the carports. This left me in continued damp conditions with no place to put my items safely. We were not told we would lose our back verandahs. This deception has cost me and my health dearly with multiple chest infections
- I have watched trucks every day entering the complex at speed and leaving heavily ladened noisily and at speed dangerous in a closed in complex with residents but highly and potentially catastrophjic for aged and frail residents.
- private trucks and utes belonging to contractors also recklessly exit and enter the complex driving at speeds higher than 20 ks an hour all day. I just watched a dark ute blue or black drive at 40 ks to the back of the units where they are working.
- the cyclone fences are a hazard to the elderly and block pathways that residents use.
- not enough hazard warning and signage for a old age complex
- the whole half of the complex is blocked off without prior warning nor communiction to ascertain needs or offer alternatives no access for my animals to their yards or their outdoor sheltered area.
- I open my back door to a wire fence. This is very distressing to me and is causing my mental health to decline rapidely
- my dogs cannot play in their back yard but the contractor is allowed to have his two dogs run around my back yard.
- I walk out my door at 6 15 am to find a pair of shoes wrapped in a towel and find I am being stared at by contractors. This is a compolete invasion.
- I am the object of derision and ridicule by the contractors who have had my confidential and private information shared around.
