storey building in Auburn, which inspectors found to be riddled with fire hazards and building defects months after owners and tenants moved in.Credit:The commissioner described the apartment tower at 93 Auburn Road as "an abomination ... because it wasn't finished", and cited it as the "straw that broke the camel's back" in convincing the government to enact tougher powers to protect owners.

After warnings from Fire and Rescue NSW, Cumberland Council inspected the building at Auburn Road and slapped an emergency fire safety order on it and the other tower which backs onto it at 18 Harrow Road last October due to "various faults". "The builder takes these type of claims very seriously and will continue to actively manage the resolution of the defects claimed," he said in a statement.Cumberland Council said Fire and Rescue NSW had indicated the emergency fire safety order slapped on the building last October had since been complied with.

Mattonews Government should take a harsh stance against builders and developers. Its obvious that theyre ripping off the public with sub standard quality in order to reap bigger profits. This is 3rd world stuff. Australia is heading that way if nothing is done.

Mattonews Interesting that there is no mention of the Certifier in this article, is this because Council was the certifier? (All application details have been removed from Council website). maybe private certifiers aren’t the problem after all 🤔🤔
