1. I find this a total waste of rate payers money. There is actually nothing wrong with the trees that are already there, and to have them replaced with palm trees is crazy. I am sure the $25 000.00 (so we have been told) can be spent more wisely by the LCC. Can you please explain why they need to be replaced, and if going to be replaced by palm trees are these palm trees actually native to Tasmania. Spend your money on cleaning up the undergrowth on the York Street side of the pool and up along Welman street, it is a disgrace.

2. On perusal of DA no DA202/2014 I find it very difficult to justify the funds being spent on the removal and replacement of trees with exotic palms considering that the existing trees are in good condition, are native trees which attract native birds, and are not creating any danger to people or property.

   The funds would be better spent on beautification of Launceston by the removal of litter, weeds and general rubbish in any number of places in the city.
