Sad the Council didn't give the community the choice- which it was given by the designer - of having natural shade trees or erecting an artificial structure made of plastic materials. So sad the Council choose the plastic option, rather than the natural option. Not only do trees provide shade, but they convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into oxygen which is then released back into the atmosphere and carbon which is stored (locked away). Opting for the artificial plastic option is very short sighted. It's not in keeping with the natural Fitzroy Gardens.
The application should be refused and the trees for shade option adopted.
