A statement from Acting Mayor Ann-Maree Greaney

Queens Gardens’ wedding lawn and other grassed areas are being senselessly vandalised by electric bikes and scooters, leading to expensive months-long repairs.

This damage isn’t minor. It has effects on our gardens and it has impacts on members of our community who have planned special events like weddings and vow renewals in this space.

Despite putting up fencing, these vandals are continuing to breach barriers to damage our lawns. To say that I am disgusted and disappointed is an understatement.

This vandalism has been reported to Queensland Police. Anyone who has information should call Crime Stoppers anonymously on 1800 333 000 and quote the reference number QP2500536374.
