I was pleased recently to get feedback from the City Council's Leisure & Communities Department that it has again taken action to remove graffiti in Victoria Park.An Order to contractors has been placed to ensure the graffiti (see right) will be removed shortly.
There has been an on-going graffiti problem here (click on headline to view earlier article from April 2007) and I am pleased that the City Council is taking action to remove it.
The City Council is looking at the viability of replacing the graffitied building with a better shelter, which will provide better protection against the elements for parents whose children are using the nearby playpark but would also be far more difficult to damage with graffiti. Consultations with stakeholders, including park users, are on-going.
