Petition details
Reopen Victoria Park
We the undersigned petition the council to Local residents have recently been advised Victoria Park will now be closed for the foreseeable future, due to a relatively small number of individuals who have not adhered to government social distancing policies in light of the recent Covid-19 outbreak.
While many of us appreciate the motivations for this decision, we feel it is not only unfair and unnecessary, but may also be counter productive.
With there being limited parks and recreational areas within the vicinity, many local residents, including families, dog owners, and the elderly, will find themselves forced to go to other more populated areas, placing them at higher risk of infection.
As law abiding residents, we implore you to reconsider this somewhat rash decision.
This Petition ran from 25/03/2020 to 06/05/2020 and has now finished.
