Ill-conceived project: While driving past Coronation Park, Maunganui Rd, I was absolutely appalled by what I saw. Perfectly good trees cut from the centre of this beautiful grove and stumps left.
What was a natural windbreak and scenic backdrop has been trashed, exposing unsightly Port buildings. Businesspeople spoken to in the vicinity are outraged by what has occurred in this delightful park. The project appears to be ill-conceived, environmental barbarism. People need to be held accountable. Who authorised the desecration of the healthy mature trees?
Where is the tree report and were TCC Councillors aware of the extent and after-effects of this devastation.
