Vandalism, Graffiti and Fly Tipping in unused garages

Several of these long-term unused/derelict garages have been broken into and vandalised.
Over the last few years the garages have been boarded up to little affect as they are regularly broken into and used to dump rubbish and industrial waste.
Drug paraphernalia can also be found on the floor and fires have been lit inside.
Why these garages have not either been demolished or sealed properly so that people cannot gain access (perhaps using the metal shutters used on empty/derelict houses) I do not know.
As you will see from the attached photo, this is hardly a welcoming sight to those visiting the local park and cycle speed way track.

Updates
Thank you for flagging up the state of these garages.
They are set to be demolished soon and we are currently negotiating with our existing tenants.
We are going to look at ways to make the garages more secure in the meantime.
I'll come back to you as soon as I have more information about when the garages will be demolished.
