Show Notes

A pohutukawa tree on Auckland's North Shore has sparked controversy, with residents of an impacted apartment complex calling for a solution.

The tree fell over into the complex's property and has been lying in place for three years - and there's growing demand to move it.

Former ZB broadcaster Murray Deaker is one of the impacted residents and he says the tree's a safety hazard for residents and their families.

"There's a hearing on the sixth of August... and people can go along and put their submissions in. And I think that'll be an interesting one."
