Tree Planting Initiative

DESCRIPTION OF INITIATIVE 

To restore the loss of tree canopy due to hurricanes, citrus canker, and urban development, the City of South Miami, in partnership with the Miami-Dade County Community Image Advisory Board, will be planting trees in the city's public right of ways (grass swale areas), which were most impacted. Some of the benefits of planting trees include improved air quality, saved energy, and reduced stormwater runoff. The planting of trees has been scheduled to start on September 30, 2009.
