1. Remove these ugly trees.

   Doesn't not suit the area.

2. These tree are an eye sore . Doesn't not suit suburbia, replace with lush vibrant shades given trees

3. These tress are needs to be all removed we live in suburbia not out bush ... trash trees.

   Get them out

4. To whom it may concern,
   There are three comments on this significant tree's removal. Yes, it is not a lush green straight tree. But then I live in Adelaide. It has flowers so must create loud birdlife and bees too! Been planted there for so long and now not fitting in. How horrible for you all. Suburbia - I can see that trees don't fit in with it anymore do they?
   Sorry but I am all for trees, pretty or not in my suburb and others. I am for South Australian fauna and flora and for future generations.

5. I agree these trees are a eyesore
   Plant something more in line of inner city.

   Perhaps ornamental pears, golden ash...

   Remove these ugly dead looking species...

6. We live in a throw away society and now that has made its way to how people treat native trees that have most likely lived longer in the suburb than any of the people writing these negative comments. Dead trees provide a habitat for wildlife.
   Remove the trees and there will be greater consequences for suburbs. Growing new trees takes time.

7. Keep the tree - it serves a purpose.
   If we took the same argument that the tree is an eyesore in order to remove it, then really the majority of all new developments in our suburbs shouldn’t be getting approval as they too are an eyesore.
   Trees under powerlines should be shaped regularly to avoid them looking butchered though.

8. Tress should not be removed unless absolutely necessary. They provide habitat, reduce stormwater runoff, and reduce the urban heat island effect. New plantings take at least 2 if not more decades to get a size that allows animals to live in them provide appreciable shade and water interception. We have lost so much tree cover over metropolitan Adelaide (and Australia in general) it is scandalous, all the while approving terribly insulated dwellings further contributing to global heating.

9. I am so disappointed at some of the comments on here. Mature trees stay. It’s a native as well. If you want your suburb to look even nicer, you could plant some additional trees of any type you like on your own land, and in decades to come someone else can enjoy them, as they time a look time to grow and provide real environmental benefit.

   And also there are heaps of unattractive homes going up these days, including in glandore…if attractiveness of assets is important then many of these should be knocked back or knocked over.
