LJ Hooker Visits Bathurst Street.

Last Thursday a visitor in a suit appeared on site. On Friday he came back with a female. I took a few photos and then using some brilliant software called Photozoom, I was able to blow the photo's up.



This allowed me to just make out the Nobody Does It Better slogan on the yellow folder. So it was LJ Hooker! Which is very interesting because Unit 1 is basically locked up pending a Tribunal which takes place this Thursday 19th May, and the back Units 2,3 and 4 are not habitable till the collapsed retaining wall at the rear is repaired.

Mehrab-Khani brought it down with his excavations but refuses to repair it, leaving the neighbours shed hanging precariously in space with a pole tentatively holding it up.

So the question is, is he attempting to sell the half developed site (surely an act of desperation), or is he hoping to perhaps pre-sell the units?

Time will tell. On Wed 18th May he is back in Court to face 4 charges of various building breaches. I will be there along with Tony Jacobs and will be reporting back.

The next day, Thursday 19th May is the long awaited Tribunal, with myself against Mehrab-Khani and Hobart City Council. Neil Noye from HCC stated that this should "rightfully be tested at Tribunal". A decision from that is expected by 9th June.

I will report the Tribunal results here as well. Stay posted. This is what it has all come down to.

The aforementioned Photozoom which I really like is here:
