Today's "Courier" (click on headline above to view) and last night's "Evening Telegraph" (see http://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/output/2009/03/18/story12791515t0.shtm) carried my comments about the fire vandalism near Victoria Park Bowling Green.
Last weekend, some 15 mature conifers were destroyed, as well as some border plants. Tayside Fire and Rescue has correctly pointed out that anyone deliberately starting fires is putting lives at risk.
I have already been advised by the City Council's Leisure & Communities Department of its replanting proposals. Additionally, although I appreciate that staff cannot be everywhere at all times, I have also asked if an increased presence in the park can be achieved.
