Thursday, 23 April 2015 09:33

Stephen Griffiths and Jennifer Hold acted for Kogarah City Council and secured a conviction with a fine of $60,000 (plus costs) against a developer who removed two trees without Council consent. An aggravating factor in the case that contributed to the objective seriousness of the offence was the removal of one of the trees from a neighbour’s property without the owner’s consent.
