City Trees - Sustainabillity Guidelines & Best Practices

The City Trees Sustainability Guidelines and Best Practices were developed to support the new and innovative project, Hawthorne Eco Village, in the City of Minneapolis. The goal is to create a sustainable green neighborhood.

This book was created to better institutionalize codes and standards for designing communities with trees.  The impact that trees make on our communities is tremendous and although we can quantify some of their benefits, we cannot always quantify the social and psychological values.  But, we know they exist.  People in communities mourn the loss of trees from storms or from other problems.  And, people will rally around planting, protecting and ensuring that trees are a part of their neighborhoods and communities.
