The reporter’s words
Can we please have a lawn that the kids can play on or even sit on, and not gorse - there are heaps of gorse plants, even flowering ones as shown, I easily counted 30 plants in one small area. The Waratah post in the middle doing absolutely nothing has never been removed from when this was developed over 5 yrs ago which makes one question if it was ever planted with grass seed. This entire area appears to have never been sewn properly I've never seen such appalling lawns in any other council area, even the parks people comment on it , I and my neighbours would greatly appreciate the council doing something about this.
