      My first post here, go easy on me!

      It seems as though Centrelink/some State Government agency have purchased in a nearby block that a family member lives in.

      It also seems as though a single woman and her seven children will be moving into this apartment. This two bedroom apartment.

      Along with that, a fair amount of tax payer funded furniture is moving into this apartment.. irrelevant but an annoyance nonetheless.

      The story going around the block is that the husband of this woman has been recently sent to jail. Previously, the family was living in another apartment not far from here, which was trashed beyond reason, and more often than not, the Police were present. Admittedly, this is all heresay, but the other facts still stand.

      Our fears are that what was once a quiet, clean, and very well maintained block will no longer be.

      Should strata have been informed of this? Points of concern are:

      * 8 People living in a two bedroom unit?

      * Excessive water consumption – a nightmare where the water bills are split evenly (no individiual meters)

      * A fair amount of additional wear and tear on the block

      * The fact that this apartment is now owned and being run as a housing commission type place

      Is there a leg to stand on? Peaceful enjoyment etc etc?

      Is it unreasonable to be upset about this?

      Thanks guys.
