What the f*%K is wrong with these people (bureaucrats) when a local council gives the go ahead to fell a perfectly healthy 500 year old Kauri and a 300 year old Rimu just so that a couple of houses can be built?!! and I believe where the Kauri is situated isn't even within the house's foundation area, it's where the planned deck is going to go! Disgusting, shame on the Auckland Council!
"Auckland Council west resource consent manger David Oakhill said resource consent had been granted for two houses to be built on the site, which meant some trees needed to be removed."
Some trees? Those trees have been there longer than us white fellas!! If they are cut down then the biggest branch of Kauri should be found, sharpened, greased and shoved up the council's arse, then stood upright ala Shaka Zulu!
