| 690178 | 2008-07-19 04:46:00 | Some people take the law into their own hands and to hell with what is right or wrong - as stated in the article - According to the Property Law Act, 2007, people are not entitled to cut down other's trees on private property. So whats gong to happen I wonder ? We had a tree in our place three years ago that was causing the neighbours a bit of greaf, with the leaves, the previous owners of our place didn't care less, the neighbour (who I have known for a few years Via Compter repairs asked if I /He could trim it) - simple solution, We worked together to cut it down - the wood burns quite well in the fireplace - they have gas heating. Beetle - maybe your neighboours and those people in that article should live beside one another - now that would be intersting. ;) |

I just cut 5 of mine down the old lady next door had been asking for a while if I would take the tops out and trim them. I did it at ground level that solved the problem. They were only a few years old so no major. |

| 690181 | 2008-07-19 16:33:00 | yep some folks are ignorant about how invasive to space/sunlight etc a tree can be........specially when it's their tree and it's not bothering them......... neighbourhood laws are stupid in this regard......you cant build any structure that is intrusive to a neighbours views etc without going to council and getting the nieghbours permission generally but you can plant 20 trees which'll grow to whatever hieght you like !!! nutty |

| 690184 | 2008-07-20 12:41:00 | i find it interesting that he claimed the trees were a danger, AND that they were not helping to sell the house - ie the kids weren't going to be in danger anyway. plus there was only one tree in that photo that was near the house. so he really just wanted to let some light in to sell the house for a bit more cash, then move to where-ever and leave the old lady to deal with it... |
