How can I plant a tree on my terrace?
- Tree can be purchased
through the City at a nominal fee.
- Trees can be planted by the property owner at his/her own expense. However,
permission should be obtained from the City Forester ((920) 967-5153,
M-F 7:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.) prior to planting. Please allow five days.
- Street terrace trees are available to residents through the City
at no cost in a designated planting district. The planting district
will change from year
to year and will be publicized in the newspaper.
Refer to the recommended species list for choices. Where overhead
wires exist, a low-growing tree is recommended. Narrow terraces
less than 3 feet in width
also limits tree choices. The City Forester has final decision
on tree type and location on terrace.
How do I have my branches trimmed on a terrace tree?
- The City is responsible
for maintenance of terrace trees.
- A Tree Contractor is usually assigned
in fall and winter to trim, prune or remove trees, so homeowners are asked
not to trim city terrace
trees.
Hazardous
trees are scheduled to be pruned as necessary.
What can I do to get a tree
removed?
- Call the City at (920) 967-5153 to report the terrace tree.
- The City Forester will inspect the tree and determine action to be
taken.
- Tree removals (unless an immediate hazard) are scheduled for
winter removal.
- The wood is offered to property owner or the City crews will
pick up.
- Stump removal will follow in spring by contractor and terrace
restoration by City crews.
