Bayside board approves 2025 Adopt‑A‑Tree program
Summary
Operations Superintendent Shane Albers presented the 2025 Adopt‑A‑Tree Program, proposing three tree species and three resident participation options; the board approved the program unanimously.
The Village of Bayside Board of Trustees approved the village's 2025 Adopt‑A‑Tree Program during the Jan. 23 meeting after Operations Superintendent Shane Albers gave an overview.
Albers identified three trees proposed for the program and outlined three options for resident participation, noting the program closely follows prior years' practice. Motion by Trustee Mike Barth, seconded by Trustee Ben Minkin, carried unanimously to approve the 2025 Adopt‑A‑Tree Program as presented.
Why it matters: the Adopt‑A‑Tree Program supports the village's urban forestry efforts by allowing residents to participate in tree selection and care; the program may also support the village's Urban Forestry Grant application (Resolution 25‑01 approved in the consent agenda). Staff will implement the program as described in the Public Works Committee materials.
