The note [on the ratepayers Facebook page] attempts to cast residents as the guilty party by leading readers to believe the residents placed these orange dots on the trees.”
Another resident, who approached the LDRS separately says while Heald Green is a a popular and prosperous area, 'it is also important to protect what is precious such as green spaces. In a statement they add: “Once we became aware of the issue we immediately published a statement to advise residents we were looking into how the spots came to be sprayed on the trees. We needed to establish the facts, which required council officers to investigate the matter.”
