Planning and Public Spaces Minister Rob Stokes has threatened to shut the city's parks and gardens if Sydneysiders cannot stay off the grass and respect self-isolation and social distancing guidelines.
"For now, I'm keeping our parks and public spaces open, and I encourage others - councils, universities, schools - to do the same," he told. "Closing our parks is a last resort but it will happen if people don't follow social distancing rules."Young people were photographed congregating at a St Kilda park in Melbourne on Friday, while images of a packed Bondi Beach last weekend forced the state government to intervene, leading councils to close their iconic beaches.
