Housing affordability and availability is at critical levels as the gap between the 'haves' and 'have nots' grows wider. In Logan we have a ludicrous situation where our elected representatives have been influenced by the 'haves' who did not wish to have the 'have nots' living in their precinct in low cost recovered housing that complied with all standards, A small business wanted to provide shelter for some citizens with some hardships - but council - urged by some community - say no - or not here?
