As I thought.
Your instinct was spot on. I didn't ask for permission to cut down the tree.
The previous owner did and gave us the DA. :0)
Too many trees around here. Not actually trees which is the problem. Mainly shurbs and rubbish gone wild. I'm giving all those mongeral pepper corn things the sword, each and every one of them. The roots travel 10's of meters and above the ground.
They are considered an invasive species in some states and I can see why.
Not going to be invading here much longer that's for sure!
The huge gum out the front supposedly is not healthy because it's too big to get enough water. Dropped a Huge branch Christmas eve which I had to clean up.
That also has a DA for removal. I anticipate that to be a $20K exercise at least.
Going to get a tree guy in the new year to give us advise on taking some off the top and sides or if it really needs to come out.
Everyone says what a wonderful tree it is but if the council think it should come out.... Got to be something to it to convince them!
I'll literally have about 10 years of firewood if not more with the thing.
So what should be done with the metal Roof?
