The landlord is an alcoholic or very heavy drinker who arrives at the house every morning to repair old rusty cars under the house. He has a licence from the council but he's breaking several laws relating to noise, dust, and quiet enjoyment of the people living in the house.<br /><br />When I asked if I could open a workshop under some tenants rooms, I was told that because it would cause problems with noise dust and fumes, it would have to be housed in a separate building. <br />The man's drunkenness has caused serious disagreements at the home, and he has been fighting with the tenants. He intimidates some of the older tenants who are sick and too poor to move.<br />Who will stick up for these disadvantaged elderly Cairns residents if the Cairns Regional Council will not lift a finger to help?
