Decode Municipal Tree Ordinances

Preserving urban and community forests starts with putting policy-level structure in place, but oftentimes, when policies are implemented, information is spread across various parts of the municipal code, making enforcement confusing or frustrating. Joined by Alana Tucker from the Arbor Day Foundation and Matthew Hererra from the City of Renton, WA, this webinar will focus on sharing best practices and real-life examples of why having clear tree ordinances in place help communities reach their urban greening goals and offer realistic first steps to understand existing codes and determine what primary improvements or goals you’d like to achieve and where to find assistance.
