Response:
There is only one recorded complaint regarding overhanging trees that relate to the property at 40 Tiritoa Terrace. The complaint was received on 6th October 2017 and referred to trees overhanging the Council berm. The trees were cut back by the owners of the trees following contact by Council staff.
We can also confirm Council received a call from a person regarding trees growing on the property at 40 Tiritoa Terrace Feilding that were overhanging their section. As the trees were growing on private property and overhanging another private property the complainant was advised that it was a civil matter between the two property owners. It was suggested to the complainant that they contact the owner of the trees prior to taking civil action to see if the matter could be resolved.
As this was a general query no formal details were taken including the date the query was made. However MDC staff do recall that the complainant was referring to trees on 40 Tiritoa terrace and they recall looking the property up at the time.
