Poll: Are you in favour of V-shaped pruning to avoid power lines?
Another Auckland suburb has come under fire for unattractive tree pruning.
Waterview’s Alford St made headlines last week after residents complained the trees had been cut into unsightly V-shapes by Auckland Council contractor Treescape.
Doria Johnson, who lives on Scott Rd in Papakura, said the trees on her road have had the same treatment, from the same contractor.
