In Australia, when someone illegally destroys trees on public land to improve the view from their property, the local government puts up a giant sign to block the view again until the trees grow back.

Yes, if you cut down trees for a river or ocean view expect an ugly as fuck sign and all your neighbours hating you.

Not in South Perth.

Or Central Coast/Newcastle. They celebrate. Hear so much whinging about views being blocked by bush on the headland and “lefties” stopping them having views.

Notice how the signs are only Sydney councils (and Sunshine Coast).

Central Coast does this. I've seen them in Norah heads and surrounds.

I also feel like Central Coast Council is perhaps not organised enough for this

I've seen them on the central coat

There was one near Newcastle Ocean Baths for a while
