TREE PROGRAM UPDATE #4

What has been going on with the tree program in Greenhills? 

• Tree pruning and some removals continue throughout the Village.
• Comprehensive work in the “H” block begins NEXT WEEK.
• Our Arborist has completed the annual assessment of all trees in the Village, and identified a number of trees for removal or pruning that we will be following up on in the next few months.
• A more intense assessment of the trees in the B-block is underway and may take a few weeks to complete.
• The entire route of the Red, White & Blue Parade has been clear-pruned. 

What is clear-pruning? It is when lower limbs are removed to a height

of 8 feet on sidewalks and 14 feet on the streets to allow pedestrians and vehicles, respectively, to be able to walk and drive without hitting a tree limb.
