Fall Tree Care

Protect your trees over the winter months:


* For trees susceptible to disease from pests, prune in late fall when pests are not active. Water newly planted trees up until ground freeze to prevent root damage.
* If you see spots, discoloration and early leaf loss in fruit and lilac trees, rake and dispose of leaves properly to prevent further spread of fungal disease.
* Wrap sensitive trees such as evergreens in burlap before winter; also do this for trees located near plowed roadways to prevent snow, salt and ice damage.
* Place guards around tree trunks in early fall to prevent damage from rodents, deer and other wildlife.
* Wrap trees or use guards made of light-colored, reflective material around tree
trunks to prevent sunscald before the first snowfall.
* Mulch around trees and shrubs to retain moisture and warmth.

Fall is also a great time to plant trees! Learn more about the City's full-service *Tree Canopy Program [ [link removed] ]*, and apply by Oct. 4 for fall planting.

Your Input Needed by Oct. 6

In a recent survey, residents shared some great ideas for Parks and Recreation improvements in our community. Now, we need to determine which ideas are feasible and how they could be funded.

Please share your opinion on which, if any, of these projects should be funded as part of the 15-year Parks Master Plan, with a quick 5-question survey. The survey closes at end of day Sunday, Oct. 6.
