Two more Statutory Declarations from residents of Wool Street confirm ashes were indeed scattered in ANZAC Park

'ANZAC Park' is certainly a memorial park.

"Wool Street contributed many men to the Second World War, including Arundel Wilson, a grandson of Judge Harding, my brother, Lieutenant Bernard Bolger, Lieutenant Clive Purcell and his two brothers, RAAF member Keith Waller, and several others." HERE

"I have observed gatherings of people in Anzac Park which were solemn occasions, which I observed were people gathered to scatter ashes and hold a ceremony in remembrance of their loved ones. It was the solemnity of the occasion which drew my attention to the scattering of ashes and I have observed groups which were in Anzac Park for this purpose." HERE

Brisbane City Council only recently in 2004 listed ANZAC Park on it's very own BCC Heritage Register. The park satisfied 3 criteria to be listed - one was 'as a place for remembering the fallen from the district in the Great War, it has a strong or special association with the life or work of a particular community or cultural group for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.' We have a copy of the BCC Report 'Conservation Management Study Site Report September 2002' which recommended ANZAC Park be listed on the Register, which it went on to be in 2004.

It would appear BCC are ignoring this memorial significance and in fact recently have denied the memorial significance of the park in a letter to residents HERE. ANZAC Park was also mentioned on the Avenue of Honour Project in 2007 which aims to honour the memory of the fallen by documenting, preserving and reinstating the original tree plantings and establishing new Avenues of Honour by the Centenary of Anzac in 2015. We have a copy of this report also, 'Avenues of Honour Research Report Produced for the national 2015 Avenues of Honour project'.

Something very peculiar seems to be going on here.
