National Avenue tree trimming

John Fareham and John Abbott have secured initial undertakings with regard to tree trimming and removal works to be carried out on Norway Maple trees on National Avenue. As a result of various complaints about such matters as trees leaking sap onto house frontages and parked cars, to say nothing of birds finding abundant foliage convenient to nest in, with the inevitable resultant mess, we referred the matter to the officers. They have now informed us that it is proposed to get rid of four or five of the largest trees, specifically those causing the most nuisance. It is hoped that details of this work, together with trimming of other trees, will be available in the next few weeks; when we have this information we will of course pass it on.
