Normally we stay on the positive side of things with our page but some things have to be spoken about.
On Saturday we had some cowboys from BRP Industries roll in to Yass to make some changes to Telstra exchange lines causing the pavement to be dug up in the main street outside our gateway. It included the two other businesses either side of the gateway.
No information given and next thing we have our driveway dug up with customers being trapped and access cut.
My initial reaction was to blame the Council as they would have to know about it, but apparently not.
The culmination of it has been gas lines cut, water lines cut, fences being jumped and areas broken into. Multiple hours of closures trapping people in a business yard. Unsafe work processes. Violent behaviour and language.
I have called everyone, with mixed results. Safework, Police, Council, Facebook posts. In all honesty it is a loosing battle and this posse of cowboys have just rolled over us with no reprisal.
I have stood up for our business and staff with an eye on our community. I regret nothing and will chase up all avenues to have this investigated.
Mixed feelings about a particular page representing Yass as well. Wouldn't post my initial issue post that Yass Notice Board did. Happy to post a slanderous post from a "nickname" poster and let it run until it backfired from positiveness. They then pulled it.
