The South Burnett Regional Council has been forced to close a disability toilet in Blackbutt for urgent repairs after vandals wrecked the facility.
Council issued a public notice on Monday saying the toilet, in Les Muller Park, would be closed until further notice.
Photographs released by Council show the extent of the damage.
A fire appears to have been lit, melting some fittings and badly damaging others.
The facility will be re-opened once repairs have been completed.
Earlier this month, Council called for community support to stop the mindless vandalism in the region, which was costing it thousands of dollars to repair.
A spokesperson said public toilets had been the main target.
Other recent incidents occurred at the public toilets in Butter Factory Park and Reg McCallum Park in Nanango.
