1. With respect for the application to remove the camphor laurel tree at the back of 128 Beattie St, I would like to lodge an objection to its removal. I live at 130 Beattie St and this tree was a part of our decision to purchase this property 12 months ago. It provides the central backdrop to our home as well as a serene, shady aspect. We believe it contributes very much to the village like feel of Balmain. From our windows I often see the birds resting in its boughs. It would be sad to see a beautiful, old tree sacrificed especially when it poses no real risk to the surrounding properties.
   Please consider my objection
   Kind regards

2. When I initially read this application I assumed the tree was on private property. However, as it is on public property and an asset for the wider community I would like to lodge an objection to its removal. The removal of this tree would be a degradation for the whole street. It is a lovely tree that has served many generations not only by it shade but also its aesthetic value as a beautiful tree much appreciated and admired by the local community. It is important that it be retained as it is home to birds as well and I hope that this tree remains an asset for the whole community as the trees in Beattie Street are loved by many.

   Thank you.
