Urban Forest Management Plan
Summary
The council adopted the city's first comprehensive plan for its 16,000 public trees, which currently get pruned only reactively. The plan sets up a dedicated forestry division, a five-year pruning cycle, stronger tree protection rules, and shared stewardship with HOAs and residents.

Impact analysis
Costs will phase in over years through future budgets, with tiered hiring tied to available funding rather than an immediate large hire.
Everyone — healthier trees mean shadier streets, fewer falling-branch emergencies, and proactive care instead of expensive reactive fixes.
