Sounds like some made up BS if you ask me.

Maybe you’re right that she’s trying to force you out.

Think it’s got anything to do with the VCAT application you’ve put inV

Well I haven't even put in a VCAT application, just a CAV review of the rent increase - and I even told her it could very well end up being in her favour but I just needed to explore my options.

At this stage it's sounding retaliatory.

I don’t think a LL is in a position to review the safety of the balcony unless it’s clearly showing signs of problems.

They’d need an expert or something which would end up costing them.

If the plants could do then it would have been unsafe if you were out there instead right?

I admit I do have a fair few plants out there but yeah she hasn't provided any proof so far. I don't think she would have a leg to stand on in vcat but I most definitely don't want to take it that far if I don't have to. The fact that she told me to remove all of them, though, is just... what.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 7 points 3 days ago

Is just petty if she’s being retaliatory about it all.

I’m so sorry you have to go through off of this. It doesn’t feel right at all.

You can buy insects for your garden online now. Fancy that. Just be careful what kind you get. … 😊

I can catch some clothes moths and bring them to kittens apartment just before they leave.

Oh no... The LL must have tracked in clothes moths during the impromptu inspection. Whatever will they do?
