Stop the eviction!

People living in tiny homes on wheels (THOWs) on rural land are being evicted by Sunshine Coast Council. Steve, a Maleny landowner, has been asked to remove this tiny home on his property after a neighbour complaint.
He wrote to Council asking them to review their decision. “Our THOW is part of the solution, and I encourage Council to prioritise more affordable housing options and solutions for more individuals,” said Steve.
Caravans, buses, and tiny homes on wheels (THOWs) are classed as temporary accommodation and managed by a local law. Without a permit, they can only be lived in for four weeks in a 52-week period, with a permit for a maximum of 18 months.
Concerned members of our community are asking the Council to recognise that these forms of housing are permanent choices of housing and need to be in the town plan.
