Squatting

Squatting may be the only option left for those being forced out due to the desal plants
construction and worker influx.

As we (basscoast residents) have received no real help from those causing this problem
specifically the basscoast council and state government we know that many of those being
evicted have no where to go and not many options either, so we will not be surprised if
many of these low income earners decide to squat in their properties.

There are no low income housing facilities in the Basscoast available to those victims
(basscoast residents) of the desal plant and none being built for 2 years, so where does
this council and state government expect them to go?

I have already heard of one lady who was evicted by greedy owners that is living on a
recreaction reserve in a tent because she could not find any housing she could
afford. Another lady has 2 months to find a home she can afford but cannot find one
under 350 per week which will take most of her wage and she has 6 kids to feed first !

So to those who dont know where to go, hang in there and keep hoping that someone
from either government will see how ridiculos this is and bring it to an end!

Goodluck to all of us !
