"Last weekend the Developer of the Ladywell Development at Corrybeg, Templeogue removed 30-year-old trees without permission. Could something be done about this?  Corrybeg is not the first place for this to happen. Developers are ripping out mature trees knowing that there is no penalty from the Council. The Council’s approach in dealing with this should be reviewed. Until the Council gets serious about it, it will still be seen, by Developers, as the easy way to deal with “problem trees”."
