How to avoid getting into a dispute

The dispute about Urban Food Streets at Buderim blew up when I was first planting my verge. There have been several major public disputes since.

Here is a quick guide on how to avoid a dispute.

  1. Find your council policy and follow it without question
  2. Don’t grow food
  3. Don’t grow spiky, poisonous or weedy plants
  4. Don’t use it to start a business (even if you don’t make any money)
  5. Do the initial transformation slowly and let people get used to it
