Mr Scott said he was told by council staff the park was mowed on a nine-weekly cycle.
“In our summer (this is) just not acceptable,” he said.
“If such a policy exists then it should be changed to have the parks mowed when required.
“The maintenance of our local parks has always been a problem in Ipswich and over many years like myself local residents have had to make requests to Ipswich City Council and councillors.
“Imagine if I only mowed my lawn on a nine-weekly cycle. I’d get lost in the grass.”
Mr Scott said it wasn’t good enough that the grass is left as it is for such a long period of time at such a heavily-used park with residents concerned about young children and dogs walking through.
