00:00So we're here in Park Road where work is going on.

00:19You live here.

00:20What's been happening?

00:22Council has been putting this rock and dirt here, which was from the other end of Anson

00:28Street, which has stopped the seepage of my paddocks and left two of my paddocks that

00:35are just totally unusable.

00:37And also my back wall has also been affected.

00:45They said it was around 10,000 cubic metres.

00:52You've lived here for 30 years now.

00:54It just means that it's devalued my property hugely.

00:58There's two paddocks that I can't graze or even drive in a vehicle.

01:03The horses have left huge booth prints, so it's actually difficult to walk across the

01:09paddock without maybe even trying to break your leg.

01:13So when the feed runs out, I'm going to be up for huge feed bills with hay for the horses.

01:21Has Council told you that the dirt and rock behind you is going to be removed?

01:25They said it will be removed in the next stage of the feeder road being developed, which

01:34who knows when it will be.
