PUBLIC HOUSING BLUES: FREE AT LAST

http://publichousingblues.blogspot.com/2010/09/free-at-last.html

Behind closed doors of NSW public housing. Thursday, September 23, 2010. I'm in a new public housing property now, in a much nicer part of the world. And best of all, I am the only one with the keys. Not like at the retirement village where I was living before where there was ready access to the key to my front door. By the general manager, his administrative offsiders, office and nursing staff and even the maintenance man. Yet my Housing NSW lease said there were to be no unauthorised entries.

PUBLIC HOUSING BLUES: November 2009

http://publichousingblues.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

Behind closed doors of NSW public housing. Saturday, November 14, 2009. More stimulus package refurbishment carry on. The botched Housing NSW refurbishment of kitchens in one of its Sydney retirement villages had a couple of positive outcomes. It resulted in two meetings of public housing tenants - the first held there for seven years, possibly even longer. So why were the high arched taps and double sinks removed in the first place? Keeping tradesmen busy. Making sure they had enough work. Was this to m...

PUBLIC HOUSING BLUES: October 2010

http://publichousingblues.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

Behind closed doors of NSW public housing. Monday, October 18, 2010. I was hoping things might improve with my local public housing office now that I was in a new place. Ten weeks later I'm still waiting for them to install curtain rails. Male passers by can see into my unit, even during the day, judging by the waves they give me. At night I'm a sitting duck for anybody wanting to do a drive by shooting. I know how a gold fish in a bowl must feel. But all is not lost. The residents of the three other uni...

PUBLIC HOUSING BLUES: CHEMICAL WARFARE?

http://publichousingblues.blogspot.com/2010/04/chemical-warfare.html

Behind closed doors of NSW public housing. Thursday, April 1, 2010. For the last six weeks I've been experiencing chemical fumes in my unit. A similar happened around this time last year. The chemical substance left a burning sensation on my skin, forcing me to leave my unit and sleep in my car. It was only the fee paying residents who had this privilege. To be protected against discrimination and harassment by management and other residents. I'd been firing off some angry emails at the other side. Subsc...

PUBLIC HOUSING BLUES: STATE TERRORISM

http://publichousingblues.blogspot.com/2010/07/state-terrorism.html

Behind closed doors of NSW public housing. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. I haven't posted for several months for several reasons. I've been virtually homeless since the middle of February when I was forced to sleep in my car after a toxic chemical substance that gave off fumes was placed in my public housing unit to drive me out. I encountered this on the morning of 8 April 2010 when I went in there to collect my printer. I've been feeling sick ever since. I've been very afraid. OUT IN THE OPEN, Sydney, NSW Au...
