# Overgrown Vegetation, 19 Merlincote Crescent, Governors Bay 8971, New Zealand

Governors Bay, Christchurch · filed 23 April 2025 · report 6229072
https://www.chch.live/report/6229072

> Large tree on council road estate is growing through our power feed to the house. Have spoken with Orion who are sending a team but also advised to lodge a ticket with council due to being on council road estate. It appears previous trimmings over the many years of the tree has caused it to grow over our property and into the lines. Having been here for 3 years now the problem has got worse with instances of branches breaking and falling debris landing on the lines.
