Moyne Shire councillor Jill Parker has labeled the act as very disappointing and said the precinct was popular with all ages. 

Moyne Shire Council and youth council, businesses and the community groups have contributed to the project. “To see it in this light is very disappointing,” Cr Parker said. “It’s very rare to go down there during school holidays and not see someone using the skate park and often young children too. It’s sad to think they’ve been put at risk by the minority.”

Moyne Shire youth development officer Geraldine Edar-Ralph said she was very disappointed and upset that the persons involved had compromised users’ safety.
