Committee explores Community Roots mural, outreach and a 10-year canopy plan

Danville Tree Committee · July 16, 2026

Summary

The committee discussed using grant education funds for a Community Roots mural with partners including LAF Design & Art Studio, and reviewed initial concepts for a 10-year plan to expand school plantings, improve Cannon Park and pursue reforestation of underused city properties.

Members considered using grant-related education or marketing funds to commission a Community Roots mural and identified potential partners including Rheanna Pierce and Lindsey Franz of LAF Design & Art Studio; possible locations include Lincoln Park buildings and other high-visibility community sites. Rheanna agreed to continue exploring concepts and costs.

The committee also reviewed initial concepts for a proposed 10-year plan that would complete tree plantings at all Danville schools, expand neighborhood plantings around schools, improve Cannon Park with outdoor classroom and nature-trail enhancements, continue citywide canopy expansion, and explore reforestation opportunities on underutilized city properties such as Edgewood.
