Part B

4.4 Top Track Corsair Bay, Sycamore Trees and Upcoming Retaining Works on Dublin Street

Alison Ross, local resident, spoke to the Board about the felling of a Macrocarpa tree on the top track of Corsair Bay, that Sycamore trees need to be identified as a pest species, and there needs to be a more nuanced approach for pest control and habitat management. Ms Ross highlighted some background reading that the Board members may like to read.

Ms Ross voiced her concern about the current works on the retaining wall adjacent to 47 Dublin Street and the lack of a safety area and there had been no communication to residents about the works. Ms Ross commented on the possibility of the road bay space to allow vehicles to pass may be compromised during the works.

The Board agreed to seek staff advice on why the Macrocarpa tree on the top track of Corsair Bay was felled.

The Board agreed to seek staff advice on the retaining wall works adjacent to 47 Dublin Street and the provision of a safety area that does not block the road bay for cars to use to give way to up or downward traffic.
