Help Save Heritage Trees in Woollahra


Help Save Heritage Trees in Woollahra
The issue
The Residents of Woollahra, Sydney are in shock.
Council has slated an avenue of cherished, heritage-listed, fifty-year-old, London Plane trees to be mulched in Rosemont Avenue.
It's a chainsaw massacre.
The solution is to maintain and properly prune them. Our tree-scape is part of our future.
If we lose these precious trees, Woollahra Council will be committing heritage heresy.
Our Arborist's Report supports our view: the cathedral-like canopy is not dead or dying. These vibrant trees are part of a natural cooling canopy, add to personal amenity and are celebrated by Sydney-siders generally.
Their loss will be a dangerous precedent for other councils and neighbourhoods across Australia.
