Community Forestry: Resolving Tree-Sidewalk Conflicts
June 16 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Removing large, healthy trees due to lifted sidewalks is not always the most beneficial solution for communities. The costs of tree and stump removal—as well as sidewalk repair—can be significant. Instead, consider learning techniques to safely repair and retrofit sidewalks in ways that preserve these valuable trees, which offer essential benefits such as shade, stormwater management, energy conservation, and the promotion of walkable, healthy neighborhoods.
