Subsidence Advisory NSW The Art of Doing Nothing (whilst looking like doing something)

April 10, 2025

I believe corruption starts here all will be explained in upcoming posts.

In 2012 and 2015, SA NSW visited our 38 and 42 Maitland Road Mayfield premises. During the visits, they suggested there were no mines under our buildings.

Maitland Road had subsided and there was a sinkhole in the kerb (Newcastle City Council informed everyone that the hole was because of an old 1968 telegraph pole stump which was eaten by termites, creating the 3m wide crater), SA NSW suggested that the problems may be caused by old mine workings under Tarin Street.

There is subsidence in opposite streets, subsidence on Maitland Road, sinkhole in the kerb, subsidence in our buildings and brown water flowing into our lower warehouse. With all of this, no one can tell us anything, other than its not related to them.

With no solution, its time to sell.
