Speaker 1 (00:00):
We're talking about the tense city. Crackdown the tense city.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
You haven't seen it yet, if you haven't been driving
past the Broadwater Parklands and Australia Fair. There is about
seventy people living rough at the moment. They've got to
move on tonight by five o'clock otherwise they're going to
face fines individually of about eight hundred dollars and then
it could go to court and they could pay eight
thousand dollars. They're never finding that money and we know that.
And I just had this idea, like, what do we
(00:23):
get a well known gold coast that's got a little
land on the coast Kwai Palmer, hook him up with
est Wav who we adore, who make tiny homes and
maybe put some tiny homes on some land. Look, we've
just got to come up with something, right, and we've
got a lot of people calling in with some idea.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Yeah, melwatsyr thoughts.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
I was just thinking that. You know, I went for
a walk on the weekend through the park with my
daughter and you know they're just not standard people who
can you know, working, you can't find a culmovation or
that sort of stuff. They seem to be more of
a cuss that maybe they're there because they're close to
the methadone clinics that are around the corner, or you know,
(00:59):
they're you know, I'm going to say the word their addicts.
You know, there's to be your addicts. And unfortunately that
does not jails well across the open of kids park,
and unfortunately is a crisis. But perhaps they're there because
they're so close to those clinics and rents have increased there,
but it means you need to move out further, particularly
(01:20):
if you are a working person. There's no if you're
not working and haven't worked for several years, well, I mean,
you know, the affordability is what it is. I think
the real problem is the fact that they're so close
to the message clinics and that's what they're really there for.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Thank you, thank you for sharing that.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I mean, it's important to know why people are getting
in different certain areas, and you know, and it's certainly
safe for them too.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
They're in the middle of that park.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
It's more safe than being underneath a bridge, as you
were saying earlier.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Also, when as soon as you like, everyone's got different reasons.
As soon as you introduce the drug and alcohol problem.
It's another issue. It's still homelessness, but it's then not
safe for the general public in some ways.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Absolutely, and we did say that behavior, and we did say.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
There's lots of different reasons why people are homeless and
it's not one size fits all.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
What about you, Rod fro Mullen, Dina.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Oh h look, I'm sure I heard on the news
recently that toy Tate was looking at putting.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
The homeless into a Rundown holiday resort that just needed
it hadn't been used and they just needed to look
at fixing up a few of the places.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Great idea, it's a great idea would be if.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
It's if it's not doing anything, it's shelter.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Hey, that's right. What about you Scott from Hope Island.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
You've you've actually got a prefabricated home business you'd like
to help out.
Speaker 6 (02:43):
Yeah, that's right, yep.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
So what's your story, Scott?
Speaker 6 (02:46):
I hope We built prefabricated at homes and we have
so many people who love them and want them, but
they they just don't have anywhere to put them.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
That's why I made that suggestion. I just I know,
I'm just saying CLIVEE. Palmer. But we know he's got
a lot of land here on the coast and it's
just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Why not put your homes Eastwaves homes on one of
those pieces of land or anyone's pieces of land that
has land just sitting there, land banking it.
Speaker 6 (03:15):
Yeah, it's rosy. And the thing is that they are relocatable.
So if a last stage, you know, he wants to
do something else to the land, then then you can.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Just move them on, you know, yeah, yeah, move it
to another parcel of land. You got to be backyard ej.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I'll tell you what, I've been thinking about it for
my daughters and my son because the price of living
is going up so much.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
I'm worried about them when they want to go and
get in the home.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
And yeah, I definitely would put a little tiny home
and then I get to keep them forever.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I'd be gone. Mel Folm llen Dna. You had been
in this situation.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
I have.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
I've been in this situation with six children and you know,
just hopping from motel to don't know where you're going
to be at the end of the day. You know,
if it wasn't for the Department of housing. I don't
know where me and my children would be Today's grateful
for that shot. But in saying that, you know them
(04:12):
what you were talking about, Emily, that there's seven thousand
dollars to build a tiny home. Do you know how many?
Like how much? Everyone in this everyone in the show.
He gets paid by settling, So you know, I know,
maybe it's not enough money to be able to cover
rent and things like that. You know, it needs to
be something needs to happen. Maybe it's not a housing
(04:33):
Yeah no, that's exactly right. It's definitely not a quick fix.
But maybe department housing touch bases with Quivey and maybe
something can be done there.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
So you like my idl I love it, I absolutely
love it.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
She wanted to hear my idea.
Speaker 2 (04:49):

Friday night going, oh, Clive could fix all our problems
with East Lava.
