Four 50-year-old Slash Pines at Cudgen are closer to the chopping block with Tweed council officers agreeing to their removal.
The trees were planted in the 1960s by a Dutch resident in honour of comrades killed in World War Two.

It wants them removed by Anzac Day – councillors will vote next week.
