Before planting commences, the Town is reaching out to residents to identify those who are interested in having a tree planted along the street in front of their home. The Town will determine if the location is suitable for planting and provide a choice of appropriate species that will not interfere with overhead wires.

Due to the necessary lead-time, we ask that interested residents contact the DPW no later than April 10, 2026. Supply is limited; therefore, this is a first come first serve opportunity.
