Scar Tree Relocation

A collaborated effort between Riverina Local Land Services (LLS) and Coolamon Shire Council (CSC) has resulted in the relocation of a large scar tree fr0m Councils road reserve to the Coolamon township urban walking and riding trail.

The tree required removal from CSC road reserve following arborist assessment and determination as a hazard to the public.

In felling of the tree it was possible to retain the scar and with a generous contribution of $3000 from LLS, Council were able to relocate it the new location of Lewis Street – Kindra Forest side between Rannock Rd and Kindra Forest gateway.

By retaining such valued items it is hoped people will appreciate our environment, heritage and culture.

Further information on the Scar Tree can be obtained from the site signage.
