They're far from endangered.
There's a time and place for them.
But if they're on your property and making your life worse, I'll cut em down and dispose of them.
I stand to be corrected, but as best as I can tell, provided these are disposed of as general waste, we can go ahead and give these the chainsaw treatment.

Selwyn District Council will be releasing the Long Term Plan on 26 March 2024 so there can be community engagement and consultation during April (up to 2 May 2024) then the feedback will be considered by SDC (hearing as required) before the LTP is finalised (July 2024).

The long-term plan (LTP) is the key planning tool for councils across New Zealand. It sets out the Council’s plans for the next 10 years – what projects SDC will be committing to complete and how they will be paid for - see the Big Decisions (Four = 1: Safe drinking water - chlorination is an issue for some; 2: Public Transport; 3: Community Facilities, includes halls; 4: Whata Rau - Leeston ), with Community facilities on the community engagement / information section for feedback.
These plans are shaped in consultation with the community's in the District and built around their priorities.
The following are links to relevant material: SDC Research Report from October 2023 J3634-SDC-LTP-report_v3-002.pdf (selwyn.govt.nz) A summary has been distributed by the SDC SDC_This_Way_2031_A2_Fold_PRINT.pdf (selwyn.govt.nz)
The report provides information, albeit mainly from those who responded, to assist in the making of informed decisions. As you are all aware, gaining feedback from the community can be a challenge but is required to inform the Council in its decision making in regard to the LTP.
