We have (had) a green roof here at Mole Valley District Council ... as shrubs
matured roots grew through and damaged the roof and the Housing Department
got wet!

What ho.
Just had a query from a client along the lines of what do I know about green
roofs? Apparently they've been told to rake the fallen leaves off twice a
year.
I have absolutely no knowledge of this topic so was wondering if anybody else
had. Especially as green roofs are becoming more common and even a
requirement on some developments.
I think in this case there's potential for an argument about a street tree,
and of course it's in the heart of Sheffield's protest area, but it seems
there might be another potential clash between trees and a planning policy.
I'd be interested to hear of anyone's experience.
Thanks as ever,
Bill.
