Species |
Most hardy and disease resistant species can be incorporated into our public spaces. Our staff will review a list of suitable species with the contributor. |
Planting and Maintenance |
Staff plant in the spring and fall seasons. The application deadline for spring is April 10, and fall is October 10. Trees will be replaced by the City if needed, at no charge to the contributor, within two years of the original planting date. Replacements required after two years will be at the discretion of the City. Staff will maintain the tree for the duration of its lifecycle as part of the City's regular tree maintenance program. The City reserves the right to plant an alternate species and size of tree at the discretion of the Coordinator, Forestry Management. If needed, plaques will be replaced by the City (at no charge to the applicant), within two years of the original installation. Replacements required after two years will be at the discretion of the City. |
Commemorative Plaque for Tree or Bench |
The City provides an attractive plaque for mounting at no extra cost, with wording provided by the contributor. A limit of 75 characters applies. |
Location for Tree or Bench |
Staff will work with the contributor to find a desirable and suitable location. The City does not maintain a list of available locations as factors like current and future development, underground utilities, and other site restrictions are subject to change and will be taken into consideration during the site selection process. Please note that the final site location will be subject to City approval. |
