Fall 2023 Tree Removals

To achieve the full rehabilitation of the channel and access the area for this work, extensive tree removals are required, along with the removal of debris and invasive species vegetation. Please be advised that the City makes every effort to preserve trees on all of its projects. For this project, a Tree Assessment identified the need to remove mature trees to complete the work, which includes both native, invasive, and cultivated tree species.

After the improvements are completed, the area will be replanted with native trees, shrubs, and grass species to ensure full restoration of the natural environment. The mitigation strategy also includes a 3:1 tree replacement; with any trees that cannot be naturally accommodated within the project limits being planted in other recommended locations within our City.
