It is a tricky one for councils in that situation as they are shit scared of litigation.
I remember talking to a friend who works for council a few years back about this, in NSW at least there is legislation that indemnifies council and sporting organisations against liability so long as the facility is kept in reasonable condition, I guess the trick is that skateparks and playgrounds have plenty of precedent around what could be considered reasonably maintained.shame really. is there no potential for a liability form an injury sustained at a skatepark or playground?
Sounds like they can't even send in a team once-in-a-while to clean up the rubbish, how are they going to maintain dirt jumps?I remember talking to a friend who works for council a few years back about this, in NSW at least there is legislation that indemnifies council and sporting organisations against liability so long as the facility is kept in reasonable condition, I guess the trick is that skateparks and playgrounds have plenty of precedent around what could be considered reasonably maintained.
You're right and I think that it's more of a cop out because they just don't want these types of facilities, obviously the councils responsible for Bare Creek and Derby have managed to make it work.Sounds like they can't even send in a team once-in-a-while to clean up the rubbish, how are they going to maintain dirt jumps?
