Firebreaks are just the visble aespect of our impact on the environment (like bolts and chalk) :)
Not sure about takepayers property, more like protection of the (toruism) infrastucture required for all you weekend warriors !
I must say guys I was pretty happy to hear the sound of a bulldozer comming up the driveway in the early hours of the morning the first night of the fires.
Anyway it all regenerates over time, the grampians has been logged, mined, grazed, burnt, etc and generally recovered to what you see today. (pristine environment)
