Along with the cities, 12 college and university campuses earned Tree Campus Higher Education designations and five utilities earned Tree Line USA designations for 2021, based on activities completed in 2020.
“The urban forestry achievements of our communities are deserving of recognition because the hard work and sweat equity citizens put into planting and caring for trees will ensure our neighborhoods can become even cooler, cleaner and greener in the future,” Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler said.
Tree City USA, Tree Line USA and Tree Campus Higher Education recognitions are achieved by meeting similar program requirements: a tree board or department, a tree-care ordinance, an annual community forestry budget and an Arbor Day observance and proclamation.
