Crowd funding a Melbourne pier ...
I've had this thought a few times while out and about looking for new land based spots in Melbourne - how difficult would it be for the Melbourne fishing community to crowd fund a decent sized pier in a great location that is close to where many people fish / live, with fish holding structure? E.g. out the back of Williamstown oval for a few hundred metres? What do others think?

Its worth doing. But red tape galore goes to ownership, permits and planning I guess.

Yep, awesome idea, but it would be a full time job obtaining the permits etc, and the red tape would drive you crazy.LINwAd wrote:Its worth doing. But red tape galore goes to ownership, permits and planning I guess.
If you take it on, think votes. If you can convince councils and the bosses of government departments there is a vote win in it then you will be half way to obtaining permits.

Got $50 million to bank roll the pier construction and the crowd funds the rest?
