Downtown In-Fill Tree Planting Program Background - Vacancies identified in downtown - Aging trees, minimal replacement canopy, no clear plan for the future - Ad-hoc subcommittee developed - Develop a planting plan that: - Is a roadmap for future plantings - Provides species that are appropriate for the location - Provides Botanical interest - Is sustainable - Meets the goals of the community 11/29/2018 4

Downtown In-Fill Tree Planting Program Planning • Identification of 220 planting locations in the downtown area • What types of trees would best meet the goals of the City and Community • Developed a list of 46 tree species (20 Drought tolerant) • Developed 3 infill plans: • Drought Tolerant • Mixed Water Use • Irrigated 11/29/2018 5
