This Council area is now infested with rats but this incompetent and dishonest Council sends out a notice to Mrs Mallone now aged 84 years old who has an immaculately maintained garden, stating her land has the potential to attract and harbour vermin.

grace The only thing that has the potential to attract and harbour vermin are the chambers at Canterbury City Council Sydney NSW Australia

@1949earl The footpath is on the northern side of Riverview Rd-not the southern side were water maybe pouring down the cliff. Stormwater from each property in that area is running down their own property. SPREADOUT EVENLY.
Instead, Parry Steps & footpath below are utilised by pedestrians, not insects on nature strip. The stormwater dumped at end of Bayview Lane & near foot of Parry Steps is from properties directing their stormwater to the Council system & COUNCIL directing it to the cliffs.

I have lived in Undercliffe and Earlwood all my life
have you never walked down Riverview road when it's raining ?
storm water pours down the cliff faces , straight on to the nature strip
is that local councils job to fix a residents shoddy storm water run off ?
and in your video you show water flowing off sandstone near the top of Parry steps
should that be the councils problem too ?
maybe get a life and stay out of the rain
your video camera will last longer

1. Except for the trickling water at the 50 sec mark, all the water shown on this video is from the roadways above that COUNCIL directs to the cliffs - not private property.
2. I repeat, the stormwater is Councils stormwater collected & directed to the cliffs.
3. Nevertheless, shoddy work on private property, is Councils problem especially when it is damaging. Not Council dollars but Council management.

4. In approx 1999/2000 Council spent a huge amount of ratepayers money on stabilising the cliffs below Parry Steps (directly opposite the ESR workshop).
Why 1949earl? The answer is because 10 yrs earlier in 1990, this incompetent Council addressed Council stormwater that it had directed at Mrs Mallone's property for decades (causing damage to her property) by redirecting it to Bayview Lane...to Parry Steps...to the cliffs & with the help of trees major instability issues occurred.

5. Why did they do that 1949earl? Because to do that redirection, Council realigned the roads above, installed guttering and directed it at the cliff. Odd, when Mrs Mallone's neighbouring property has a drainage easement that was specifically set aside to direct the Council stormwater straight down in a cliff area that would not impact anyone. That drainage easement has been in place for 60 plus years but this Council preferred & prefers, to ignore it & just waste ratepayers money.

6. Now just 10 years on, the Council reports show, they will be doing stabilisation works and tree removals again in the same area, next year.
Rather than waste our money fixing the problems this water creates, would it not be better to feed the Council stormwater in a pipe.
In future 1949earl, it would be more beneficial to all, that instead of sitting at home whinging about people, possibly whinging about the costs & of Council rates, get off your backside & do something,

In future, don't just look at the pretty pictures, have a go at reading the commentary. If it is too fast for you, there is a pause button there.
Or low and behold, even the comments submitted before yours clearly identify it as COUNCIL STORMWATER. There is also the video description.
You do understand don't you, that your rates are not just for CANTERBURY CITY COUNCIL to collect your garbage. STORMWATER management is just one. PLANNING is another. EFFICIENCY is another. etc.
