To promote the health of mature trees. To plant young trees. To establish a process to identify and mitigate potential safety issues. To promote public awareness of urban trees The vast majority of Muscogee County’s urban tree canopy is on private property. The Canopy Restoration Project will connect to private property owners with education and resources. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c44a5329f87700f9883440c/1548959621415-PASRQ0V53P9MCMNDY60P/TREES+MAP.jpg home 2019 Project Area https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c44a5329f87700f9883440c/1548005164930-WH2XUCVQ0QEU2EKC0XD8/climb+1.jpg home - our goals In partnership with Columbus Consolidated Government, evaluate tree canopy on public rights-of-way to establish tree maintenance and planting priorities for healthier urban tree canopy.
