In November last year, 290 trees were illegally destroyed in Woodford Bay, Lane Cove, in an attempt to free up a view of the harbour, which was being blocked by the trees.
Council has installed a giant red banner to obscure harbour views after trees were vandalised in a luxury suburb.
The Lane Cove council has installed a double-sided red banner that says "Trees shouldn't die for a view"The council said the banner will remain at the site of the destroyed trees until the vegetation has grown back to a suitable height. The banner is seven metres across and two meters high. "This action is in response to Council's commitment to obscure any view/harbour outlook that will have been gained by the destruction of the habitat," the council said.
