Residents willing to pay for removal and planting of one Magnolia.
2 - 2 - Council s Policy needed to ensure trees were suitable to the surrounding communities and did not cause ongoing nuisance. Understood that grounds for removal were condition of the tree, health factors and inconvenience. Dave Gray (on behalf of Mr & Mrs Ward) - Silver Birch Tree Outside 13 Tirinui Crest Road (DC 210) Issues with the trees had become stressful to the elderly owners. Since property was purchased in 1981, owners had experienced surrounding trees being cut down and poisoned illegally. Photos showing poisoned trees were provided as visual image (A). Accepted the views of their neighbours for the removal. Specifically requested replacement be two evergreen native trees, species to be determined by Council. They had no health issues resulting from the tree, however accepted that other residents may. Offered to pay for one of the two replacement trees should Council agree to their request. Would not accept the costs of removal. Paul Froggatt Street Tree Removal Request 28 Freyberg Street (DC 209) Parents purchased home in Debris clogged spouting and blocked the flow of water. Challenging to manage the amount of debris from three trees and it posed a health and safety risk to the owner frequently using ladders to clean guttering. Owner was willing to meet costs of removal and replacement if required. Confirmed trees were on Council land. Acknowledged Council Policy was necessary and that trees formed an integral part of landscape. Residents were affected by pollen, Asthma and nuisance caused by large amount of seeds disbursed from the three trees. David Ranford Street Tree Removal Request 15 Braeburn Place (DC 211) Opposed initial planting of tree by Council, therefore unwilling to meet the cost of removal. Tree had extensive root system which disturbed surface of the ground causing front fence and gate to lift. Cobble stone driveway was unaffected.
3 - 3 - (e) Richard Scott Street Tree Removal Request 39A Harvey Street (DC 261) Silk tree was removed from nearby property and replanted in front of owner s property.

Trees contributed to making the city beautiful and more trees should be planted on Harvey Street. Agreed that Council should have a Tree Management Policy. Acknowledged the lean of the tree was a potential hazard. (g) Marie Millar Reserve Tree Removal Request Evans Road Drainage (DC 262) Concerned roots of the Pine trees posed risk of damage to the Church s main water pipe. Concerned pine needles entering the drainage system via carpark grates and blocked guttering had potential to cause damage to Church building. Church was unable to meet cost of removal and proposed engagement of a contractor with intention of selling the removed trees as firewood to negate cost. Church had been located on site for approximately 12 years. Unaware of 24 trees previously removed from reserve. Six trees were previously removed at no cost to the Church because they caused significant damage to the Church driveway. Church could consider assisting with the removal as a fundraiser.
4 - 4 - (h) John Skerritt Reserve Tree Removal Request Evans Road Drainage (DC 262) Photos provided as tabled item (1) showed Church boundary in close proximity to trees.
