Glen Eira City Council

The nastiest , unfair, vindictive planning head ever. Our nribour, known to him, complained about our fence height AFTER approving it before and during construction - we checked each step of the way - decided the didn’t like the colour of the retaining wall after all (that they refused to pay for despite previously agreeing to pay half) so wanted us to rip everything down and install an inferior wood. After refusing, of course, they turned to their council mate. Then ensued two years of hell from this guy, who suddenly refuted previously approved designs, demanded we pay for other planning permits and demanding we pay for all manner of experts to retrospectively attend our site, provide extra documentation etc etc etc. only when I threatened to write to the Ombudsman explaining his actions and how unfair he has been, did he suddenly cancel his further demands, lol of which required us to breach legislative requirements, knowing that we would then have to pay to rectify. An unbelievable experience from a nasty council.

5 stars dedicated to excellent helpful staff called Geoff Plumridge who solved the residential noise issue for me. Much much appreciated all the efforts he hid. Thank you Geoff, you are the best!

"Spag Bol" as I call it is a quick and nutritious meal for those people on the go with little time for cooking but need the energy that Maccas just won't give. I first put the stove on a medium with the saucepan on top -now medium changes from stove to stove but I would say its in the middle between full heat and off. While heating the saucepan do 1 tablespoon of olive oil (the real stuff not the rip off nonsense) on the pan. When that mother is heated put the bacon on, after a brief cook either side reduce the heat (I don't care how much, make your own decisions once in a while) and then chuck in the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and rosemary. Don't forget to use that spice weasel -BAM! Stir for as long as my last feelings of hope and belonging lasted in this dystopia that we call a society (3-4 min). Okay, now heat it all back up (if you still don't know how much by or why then I suggest the power of prayer for answers), add mince and continue stirring. You ready? Its time for the tinned tomatoes and more general spices, just chuck in whatever you need to feel sophisticated or in control of your life as you spiral inwards towards inevitable self collapse. Great! All the hard work is done now leave to a simmer for a time between now to the heat death of the universe. In the mean time bring the water to boil and chuck the spaghetti in.

Its inconceivable that an Australian Council office spends taxpayers money pushing the YES vote. The Glen Eira Council should be reminded that they serve all the people and should remain impartial and allow the people to vote for themselves.
