As to who is going to police it, is not my decision or call. But whoever it is, they will hopefully have the power to do so. Whether it takes one year or ten years to put this in place, whether there is only one school, or 10 schools at the same beach, we need to find a solution to ensure no one, including guys like you who has been using the area well before anyone started kiting there, is put at risk, so everyone who use the water can do so in a safe manner.
Of course, at the same time, this is my business, and it is only natural that I do everything I need to to protect it too.
I have spent a lot of money in lawyers and town planners consultation fees to date, it could be money down the drain, but for what it is worth, it is worth spending.
Thanks for your concerns, our property is fully licensed and insured to conduct the activities we conduct. We just had a full council inspection
Shouldnt have painted it green - its attracting too much attention!

Dear Padi, I heard this rumor a few months back and swore someone was having a lend of me, please tell us you are not serious..!!!??
Who's going to police it? You? pft.. The only authority who will have any sort of power to police it will not be bothered moving on naughty kiters who don't have a certain license to kite there, what can they do? Chuck them in the slammer for the night? Arrest them and send them to court? Chances..... Maybe you could put up a huge fence from 1st av to 25th av with a electronic card reader on the gate to allow access to only permitted users, or better still hire a huge bouncer to man the gate, and he can beat the crap out of anyone who does not comply...or better still you could carry on with this horse crap and make us all look like whyning little bitches and have the sport banned altogether in the area?
...how are you going to stop any visitors kiting there? Like I said Good luck , you will never do it as it with severely affect your business financially.
The answer to your problem at the pool is right under your nose and I believe the cause of most of the dramas is caused by yourself, Having 3-4 lessons (your school alone)going at once is BS , no wonder why there is no room for anyone else, hence the tension.
I propose the council / governing authority limit each shop/school to one or two instructor licenses ,this will limit congestion on the beach and water , you my friend do not own that beach ,no one does in Australia we have things called public beaches ,I been windsurfing right there since you were crapping in your nappy , it is a prime piece of beach and one of the best learning spots in Brisbane.
.
From the outside as a non involved 3rd party, the ongoing dispute and altercations you have with another school looks primarilally business motivated ,your philosophy seems to be to get as many instructors as possible ,teach as many people as you physically can take their money off them then set them free on the rest of the world ( great for your business ,nightmare for the rest of the local kiters ) Speaking of buisness ,just wondering, that house you have taken over, is that zoned as a boarding house /shop ?? May have to get my town planner to look into that??
Got my fire suit on so
FLAME ON BEIATCHES[}:)]
. I hope we can get back to banning Kitesurfing in Belgium or was it not banning kitesurfing in Belgium. I forget what the topic was about. But read below: Does anyone have any further information. Or are we going to call Brisbane "Little Belgium", and end the topic.
