Tree 1 - River Red Gum (Front Yard) My driveway and front porch are already cracking from this tree's roots. I'm genuinely worried about damage to my home's foundation and the safety of my family given that its next to the bedroom. This is also highlighted in the arborist report and the ongoing property damage means removal is the only viable solution. Trees 2 & 3 - Dead River Red Gums Both trees are completely dead. Tree 3 is particularly concerning as it's right next to the public footpath where my kids, neighbours and their children walk daily. I cannot in good conscience leave dead trees that could drop branches without warning. Tree 5 - Large River Red Gum (Near Neighbour’s Driveway) This tree has grown significantly and now has branches extending over my neighbour’s driveway and the public footpath. There's also a dead hanging branch in the middle that needs removal. For everyone's safety and to maintain good neighbourly relations, this tree needs professional pruning to bring it back to a safe size. Please also find attached letter from neighbour highlighting his concerns and request for tree removal.
