VILLAGE TREE BOARD

Meetings

At this point, we do not have regularly scheduled meetings, but will pass that information along as schedules are made.

Tree Board Responsibilities

• The Village of Allegany Tree Board has just recently been formed to develop and help facilitate a plan for the development, conservation, and care of the "urban forest".

• Our immediate goals are to review and update our village tree ordinance, and to develop a long-range plan for the urban forest of the village.

• In most cases, "urban forest" refers to trees in the village which are in or impact the public right of ways.

• Our primary purpose is to achieve an urban forest that is safe, healthy, diverse, pleasing to the senses, and functional.

• I should point out that we are a new board, feeling our way through unknown territory, and welcome input from interested and knowledgeable sources.
