This year, the City is launching the development of an Urban Forest Management Plan, and staff from multiple departments will be there to exchange ideas and answer questions. The plan will address the City’s practices and priorities to ensure our urban forest, which includes trees in parks, along streets, in back yards, and everywhere in between, is healthy and thriving long into the future. Stop by and let us know what you think!
