Poll: Do you think these trees should have been felled?

Libby Totton Reporter from Taupō Times

A Taupō family battling the NZTA about removing trees overshadowing their property are selling the farm because they won’t live in a dangerous home.

In June, the Waikato Times visited the Blank family at their property on State Highway 5 near Wairakei after they said they were too frightened to live in their own home after trees smashed through its roof during Cyclone Gabrielle.

Do you think the trees should have been felled? Explain your reasons in the comments (add NFP if you don't want your thoughts used in print).

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
