OSCOTT RESIDENTS DEMAND MORE TREE PRUNING TO BE CARRIES OUT.


Autumn is the time residents rightly get up in arms about the hit and miss way the Current Council Administration prune trees.
A classic example in the Oscott Ward is Courtenay Road. Here we have a situation where 4 trees at one end have been cut and the rest have been left. When I questioned this decision, I got the old flannel about different trees needing pruning at different times of the year. When pressed however the Tree Section could not even grantee the remaining trees in Courtenay Road would be pruned at the right time! next year. Like residents I think this is simply not good enough, although it is not untypical at the moment. I will continue to press this issue with the department.

These trees should have been cut when the tree surgeons were in the road. To only cut 4 as they did was daft. Keep trying to get them done.
