You couldn’t make this shit up
Another Labor screw up
What happened to the land searches Should they have not showed this? These people should be relocated and compensated in full, complete rebuilds in new like suitable locations. BEFORE ANY resumption starts.
I almost think the conveyancer/solicitor didn’t do a proper land search to see if this property was gazetted for a future highway
You have to be kidding! Who is responsible for this disgraceful action?
So who knew about this🤷🏼♂️
Seems the council, the department are working in their own silos, otherwise how was a construction permit granted 🤔🤦♂️
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy - a trilogy in 4 parts!
Interesting... Seriously, someone in council or government knew this was going to happen WAY before these houses were built.
One of the most iconic Australian movies is about exactly this. Hope he gets paid well tho
You'd think it would have been known that a highway was in the offing before building approval was given...
The governments of Australia really need to be put out of our misery.
This is news?
😲🤦♂️
