I got a fine from a Victorian council for placing the nature strip grass cuttings around their tree on the same nature strip. They said that my grass cuttings, not theirs, would run into the street drains causing algae to grow. They were more than happy for me to go to court. I didn’t back down and when I showed my photos and videos of the same council cutting their grass on freeways, main streets and public parks where all the grass is forced onto foot paths and roads, the judge asked them why are they not adhering to their own laws. They were ordered to change their cutting procedures and to cut my nature strip every fortnight which they do. The fine was dropped and the council had to pay my legal fees and loss of wages for that day. So in short, every council has to explain to a judge why their laws are affecting their residents from continuing their lives without having to pay for the privilege.

Think about it, the constitution states only 2 levels are able to be government. Federal & state that’s it. So when they talk BS about local councils being a 3rd level. It’s not possible without the government breaking the law. The local councils are only a delegate entity under the state government banner. They had to legislate an act to delegate select things to these entities. There’s been referendums about local governments getting added to the constitution & they’ve been voted down. If councils were the same as state government, the state government wouldn’t be able to walk in & remove some democratically elected representatives replacing them with administration by claiming they have been mishandled or whatever. Which was done in a fair few councils areas across the state all at the same time!!!

Reality check people: 'Private' land has never been privately owned. Even in the good old days when you could get a title deed for property that you 'owned', it had so many disclaimers on it that it wasn't worth the paper it was written on. It always gave the government a lot more rights than the landowner. It's only now, after decades of complacency, that we're finally waking up to that reality. The best way to reduce government interference in your lifestyle is to live away from the cities. The less population, the less regulation.

Don't think they can compel you to open up a shed. If I understand correctly, police typically require a warrant to enter and search your property so I don't think some local planners would have the right to do that. This should apply to all of the local laws they talked about. Clause 28 of the Casey Community Local Law 2023 (updated 1 July 2024), states that you can't service or repair a vehicle or machinery on private land without a permit, if that activity or use "is detrimental to the amenity of the area in which the private land is located". This specific local law appears to be concerned with whether your activity or use is making the area in which your land is located, less desirable or less attractive. My guess is, if you're servicing or repairing your vehicle or machinery in a garage that the public can't easily see into, then shouldn't be any issues, no matter how much of a mess your work area is. If you're servicing your vehicle out in the open, then you may need a permit if it is "detrimental to the amenity of the area". Don't take my word for it though. Just my 2c.

It is people who don’t get it that have no understanding of the enjoyment of working on your own vehicle. I am willing to fight for my rights and I am sure there are many who will join me.

[@fred3527]

@thommo6331 Do it in your garage, and everyone will be happy. It's not all about the individual. It's about the whole community.

[@Bretzky99]

I may be wrong but a caravan is a recreational vehicle isn't it? So does this include caravans?

[@MrLrs2]

Most people in Melbourne only own one bedroom and the toilet...The Bank owns the rest.

[@LandTourier]

Ronny and co, you seriously need to use your high profiles to highlight the direction of the Australian gov at ALL levels. Pushing WEF agenda 2030. Stand up boys, we need your help. We have been exposing this destructive Elite driven, YOU'LL OWN NOTHING AND BE HAPPY" direction ...We are tired and NEED YOUR HELP!!!

[@reddpill]

The council's in Australia are out of control. Reminds me of the early days of the African diamond mines they had difficulty getting "workers", so "they" introduced a tax on the family dog. All families had one, but not the money to pay the family dog permit. So families were forced into the mines to receive the money to paid the fee, so the mine owners got cheap labour. #TaxSlavery

[@austingreenough6396]

We have this same fee now,it's called pet registration

[@massacher5258]

This is what money is.

[@ridingdirty2412]

Luigi Mangione will be following some of these councellers home.

[@carls6490]

Government overreach has to stop. It's at every level and destroying everything that makes Australia.

[@krapman9849]

it is ok for someone to buy the house or land next to you and start a mechanical repair business or wreckers this permit is not to stop a person working on there own car on there own property

[@87xfute]

So what if you wake up one morning to a flat tyre, or a flat battery or the car just won't start or you're just checking the coolant and oil and topping up the washer bottle and the council ranger just happens to drive past. What if you call NRMA or RACV road service. I have a big shed and I just won't answer the door and I would NEVER EVER comply. Amen I live in NSW

[@robertgregory8964]

Some Melbourne inner city councils discourage car ownership altogether. They expect you to cycle or escooter everywhere while wearing a rainbow scarf.

[@tomislavkruz]

A perfect example of Cambodian communism.

[@diggeroldmate8122]

Did they have lots of cars?

[@tomislavkruz]

@diggeroldmate8122 that's how specifically Cambodian communism works. You can take cows as an example instead of cars. It's basic history from primary school, basic logic from social studies in high school. I suggest you replace your victoria plates, " educational state" to "logic never stopped me", if it's not clear what i was trying to say. 👍

[@Spartan9567]

So the main reason the council is doing this is to combat people running commercial operations or turning their area into a scrapyard or hording area. People can still maintain their own cars as long as it doesn’t cause "detrimental" impact to the local area.

[@paddymccarthy6212]

Re: temporary dwellings. Does this mean that if you own a caravan, you can only keep it at your house for 14 days every 90? Cheers

[@topoftherock3628]

These laws are only in place because some people have gone over the top and pissed off neighbours by creating a visual mess or making a huge racket. The laws are there to protect you too. Just apply for a permit and they'll make sure your neighbours are not going to suffer. Do it properly and you'll have your fun and live in peace. NO CONSPIRACY TO SEE HERE.

[@offroad_dad]

Is this them testing the waters of what’s to come to force us out of petrol cars there is also a partition for it

[@joebloggs2862]

I decided that .

[@radiotruck8135]

The readon cb radio licenses were abolished is because only less than half were licensed

[@CreedenceClearHoarder]

Knew it would be in Victoria and ive never been to Aus lol

[@aj-qj4lt]

No wonder ive noticed over the past few years there's been an influx of Victorian's on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland...You couldn't pay me to go live in Victoria...

[@Franco_Spanks]

first word that came to mind….OVERREACH!

[@-PORK-CHOP-]

Checking is not done by rangers it's done by Ariel photography, this is a service already in process such as near map, so the councils just get the updated photos that automatically show any additions then the authorities just turn up with photographic proof, typical pathetic Victoria.

[@Timbomelb27]

If we aren’t prepared to stick up for ourselves and our ways of life then this is what we can expect. Apathy is the real enemy. There’s so many of us who enjoy all kinds of car culture. We should be having meets out the front of the council offices or in the main drag until they see our point of view.

[@AM168-r5n]

Just Councils trying to put another levy on home owners.

[@nealpennison735]

Civil disobedience, legally park as many as possible registered vehicles outside every councillors residence and city officers car park (if possible) for as long as possible, I doubt this decision would last long😁

[@sampierce8898]

I see the points that where why they got it though in the first place like stopping people from planting shit boxes instead of flowers in their front yards, suburban wanna be wrecking yards, kids on dirt bikes being more of a danger to the public and themselves but in typical government style from local/city to federal level they also couldn’t give up the opportunity to make some extra cash off screwing over the normal hardworking Aussie with a hobby or business, and I do see how many ways this would shaft people So to everyone that finds out about this issue I think you should in my opinion everytime either local/city, state or federal government tries to bring something to solve a problem take a second to think how could they screw us over in the grey areas around this because they won’t pass up an opportunity to screw you

[@astonmcleod5344]

About ten years ago I worked for casey council as a contractor. There was a bloke who would spend his time on near maps looking at garages and sheds with evap units on the roof. Then he would go to the property to see what is happening in the garage at times he would find other uses. A bit un Australian

[@justinmcginty26]

Who gave council the power to do this? No revolution just totalitarianism brought about by the gradual introduction of laws and regulations from government overreach.

[@Stevei-075]

Build a giant shed and put everything in the shed , so the council only see the one shed

[@cliffmeans6986]

No one apply for permits, simple...!!

[@waddney4121]

well what are we going to go about it
