1. Yes I made this application for a small "dam" to limit the wet area and mud after rains and provide a small amount of water security, water in reserve of the big dam which this small dam flows into. This came about because of RSPCA/Council kennel inspection where the inspectors unreasonably gave me a compliance notice including things such as demolish my wood shed or bring it up to kennel standard, right down to smoothing the edge of guttering down pipe. Getting my small dam approved was on the compliance notice. You cannot reason with unreasonable people, Logan Council/RSPCA Animal Management have been unreasonable. I cannot reason with them.

   So I had to make an application and the initial fee was $3,840.00 and then I got a letter in the mail wanting an engineers report with contours based on sea level, another $6000.00 so the red tape cost was $10,000 for something that probably cost me $400 in diesel. Out of frustration I told them to take me to court as the red tape costs were unreasonable for the works.

   The way I see it I own this property and I can do what I like with it provided I do not adversely cause detriment to others. Since when has my ownership been usurped by Council? When did Council become our "landlord" whom we must get the approval of before we make any changes to our property?
