 Subject: Complaint Regarding Public Access to Macgregor Netball Court and Staff Conduct
 Dear Brisbane City Council,
 I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the management of the public netball court in
 Macgregor, Queensland, and the unacceptable conduct of a council representative during an incident
 on Sunday, [insert specific date, e.g., 15 June 2025]. As a resident of Macgregor, I am deeply con
 cerned about the restrictions imposed on childrens access to this public facility, the aggressive attitude
 displayed by council staff, and the broader lack of recreational spaces for children in our community.
 Below, I outline the specific issues and request immediate action to address them.
 1. Public Access to the Netball Court
 The netball court in Macgregor is a public facility, funded by taxpayers, including residents of this
 suburb who pay land tax and income tax. It is unacceptable that local children are prohibited from
 using this court, particularly on weekends when no formal activities are scheduled. On Sunday, [insert
 date], my children and others were prevented from playing on the court despite no visible events
 taking place. Public spaces like this should be accessible to the community, especially for childrens
 recreational activities, when not in use for organized events.
 2. Access After Scheduled Activities
 I understand that the court may be reserved for netball or other organized activities on Saturdays.
 However, there is no justification for restricting access on Sundays or after scheduled events con
 clude. If the court is booked for specific times, the council should ensure it is opened to the public
 immediately afterward to maximize community use. Clear signage or a public schedule indicating
 available times would help avoid confusion and ensure fair access.
 3. Unacceptable Attitude and Threats by Council Staff
 During the incident on [insert date], a council representative approached us in an aggressive and
 intimidating manner, stating that children were not allowed to play on the court. The representatives
 attitude was extremely poor, and they escalated the situation by threatening a $1,000 fine for our use
 of the public facility. This behavior is unacceptable, particularly when directed at families and young
 children. Threatening residents with exorbitant fines for using a public space is not only inappropriate
 but also undermines community trust in the council.
 4. Lack of Recreational Spaces for Children
 Macgregor has limited recreational facilities for children, and the netball court is one of the few safe
 spaces available for outdoor play. The councils decision to restrict access exacerbates this issue,
 leaving families with few options for weekend activities. As ratepayers, we expect the council to
 1
 prioritize the needs of children by maintaining and expanding recreational spaces. I urge the council
 to consider investing in additional play areas or upgrading existing facilities to meet the communitys
 needs.
 5. Intimidation of Families and Children
 The council representatives threatening behavior was particularly distressing as it occurred in the
 presence of young children. As residents who contribute to the community through taxes, we have
 a right to enjoy public spaces without fear of intimidation. Weekends are a critical time for families
 to spend with children, and being confronted by council staff in this manner is unacceptable. This
 incident has left my family feeling unwelcome in our own community.
 6. Prioritizing Weekend Access for Children
 Public recreational areas, such as the netball court, should be prioritized for community use on week
 ends, when families are most likely to engage in outdoor activities. Restricting access without clear
 justification or communication undermines the purpose of these facilities. The council must adopt a
 more inclusive approach to ensure that children and families can safely enjoy public spaces during
 non-event times.
 I respectfully request that Brisbane City Council take the following actions:
 • Investigate the incident on [insert date] and address the conduct of the council representative
 involved.
 • Review and revise policies to ensure the netball court is accessible to the public, particularly
 children, when not in use for scheduled activities.
 • Provide clear communication (e.g., signage or online schedules) about when the court is avail
 able for public use.
 • Invest in additional recreational facilities in Macgregor to address the shortage of play areas for
 children.
 • Ensure council staff are trained to interact with residents in a professional and respectful man
 ner, avoiding threats or intimidation.
 I expect a written response within 20 working days, as per the councils stated process for handling
 complaints. If this matter is not addressed satisfactorily, I will escalate the issue by contacting local
 media outlets and sharing my experience on social media platforms to raise awareness. I have copied
 this letter to Jim Chalmers, Federal Member for Moreton, and Joan Pease, State Member for Toohey,
 to ensure they are aware of the concerns affecting their constituents.
 Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution of
 these issues.
 Yours sincerely,
 Your Full Name
 Macgregor Resident
