                 The other plants and palms that will require removal to facilitate the driveway alignment include
                 Tree 6, a large Indian Hawthorn bush, and Tree 7, a Spindle Palm. Advise is being sought
                 from a transplanting company on the feasibility of relocating the Spindle Palm as part of the
                 landscaping within the property.

                 Tree 9 is a Pandanus which is in poor health and condition with only one live branch that
                 extends towards and over the wall. Due to the plant’s poor condition and its obstruction of the
                 works within the site, its removal is also sought.

                 6.3 A DDITIONAL R EMOVALS
                 To facilitate new landscaping, the removal of weeds and unwanted small trees and plants
                 towards the Arakoon Crescent frontage is to be considered. This includes the Pepper tree and
                 Oleander trees/bushes, Trees 1, 2 and 4.

                 There are two over mature Pandanus, #23 and #24, at the side of the current property that
                 are in poor health and condition and suffering from Jamella. These trees are recommended
                 for removal and replacements can be included within the landscaping scheme.

                 The removal of these trees is not anticipated to detract from the long term treescape of the
                 local area. The protection of retention of the majority of the trees and plants will ensure the
                 green street “Look and Feel” frontage is preserved.
