Council has agreed to put a hold on felling "under urgency" all 13 trees until the completion of good faith discussions with residents & community are completed.

The local community has been clear throughout this process, that what they want is a "Joint Management Plan" with Council for the entire Urban Forest.

The vigil / protest under the Monterey Pines will continue until all issues are resolved.

We welcome councils new found flexibility and hope it heralds a new era of engagement between council, residents and community.
