Given the complexities of anything done by govt departments, it is very unlikely that the public would be involved in anything as dangerous as tree felling, especially if alcohol is thrown into the mix.
The best you can expect is spectating from behind a distant safety barrier, though PV would most likely undertake any felling in the depths of winter when there would be few spectators and it would be too cold for beer.

And as it has already been stated, it would make sense to have the replacement "indigenous flora" well established before removing valuable shade and wind shelter.
