City's draft Urban Forest Strategic Plan sets targets for tree species in Peterborough - Peterborough Examiner - Ontario, CA


A draft plan that aims to maintain and expand the city's urban forest was received Tuesday night by the city's arenas, parks and recreation advisory committee.
The goal is to ensure the urban forest is here in the future and better than it is today, public works division manager Peter Southall said.
"The key here is sustainability and enhancement," he said.
The Urban Forest Strategic Plan recommends the city establish targets for native species composition in the various land use classes, such as commercial and residential.
