Gympie Regional Council-One Success-Two To Go

Gympie regional Council has had a recent success in burning off an overgrown vacant block complained about in Clarkson dr Curra 4570. A fire danger to nearby properties
It has taken some time to be successfull
There are two more occupied lots that are overgrown and a fire risk--one overgrown for 3 yrs/seasons
Both have tidy front yards and overgrown backyards adjoining the recent burnt off block
All 3 block could have burnt in a Curra version of Black Friday
Till recently these 3 blocks were adjoined by a fourth overgrown block which was adjoined to overgrown pasture land(now St Andrews Subdivision)
Just need a fire to set the whole lot going which the local volunteer fire brigade would have been unable to control
The State govt media release on be prepared for the fire season seems to fall on deaf ears
And put an unneccessary burden on volunteer country fire brigades
Local govt has to be prodded into action-being responsable for overgrown lots
