Street Tree Inventory Planning Workshop

To the neighbors of Sullivan's Gulch

Street Tree Inventory Planning Workshop

On Saturday, March 8 a required planning workshop will be held from 9 am to noon at SE Uplift at 3534 SE Main St. All persons who will be assisting with organizing the tree inventory are encouraged to attend. Please register ahead of time at: http://tinyurl.com/treeinventory2014. This planning session will cover inventory logistics, volunteer recruitment, planning tools, and responsibilities of your group and PP&R.  

 

Conducting an inventory and creating a neighborhood tree plan are ambitious projects that require the help and commitment of a group to be successful. I encourage you to begin assembling your "tree team" of neighbors to assist with the project, and to bring as many as are willing to the planning session. Help can be sought through your neighborhood association, friends and neighbors, local business associations, Neighborhood Tree Stewards, local tree care companies, and other community organizations. Urban Forestry will also announce the selected neighborhoods to our contacts next week.

 

Please bring the following items with you to the March 8 planning workshop:

• Neighborhood calendar. In order to prevent conflicts with major neighborhood events, please research annual community events that occur each summer and bring a list with you. Inventory work days will be scheduled on Saturdays from 8:30 am to noon between June 21 and September 28. Each neighborhood will select 3-4 inventory work days.
• A list of possible staging sites for inventory workshops within your community.
• Ideas for volunteer recruitment in your community.
