Old trees make way for planned landscaping
Ohakune Borough Council staff and PEP workers were busy recently cutting down several large 80ft (25m) high trees in Jubilee Park north of the bowling club. These were western red cedars and had originally been planted as shelter trees. They were now old, ineffective as windbreaks and unattractively bare with only a token tuft of foliage on the upper branches. They would be replaced by smaller native and exotic trees as part of the planned landscaping for the whole Jubilee Park area, said Reserves Supervisor, Grant Drabble last week.
