City receives grant to study tree canopy - Bonney Lake-Sumner Courier-Herald:
The city of Bonney Lake recently received a $10,000 grant from the state Department of Natural Resources to study the city’s tree canopy.
According to city officials, the study will give the city a better indication of how many trees are in the city and an idea as to where they are located.
“It uses aerial photos and (geographic information systems) information to map what the current canopy is throughout the whole city,” said Community Services Director Gary Leaf.
