Street Trees Still Available To Subdivision Residents

The City of Coeur d'Alene still has free street trees for residents of eight new subdivisions. The trees are available for street-side planting in Canfield Park, Sunshine Meadows, The Landings, Ramsey Meadows, Copper Ridge, Jae's Place, Echo Glenn, and Prospector Ridge.

Residents who are willing to provide care for street trees can contact the Urban Forestry division of the Coeur d'Alene Parks Department to sign up.

Funding for the trees came from a street tree fee collected on residential building permits. The City is using forfeited funds to purchase trees and hire a crew to do the planting. The trees available are honeylocust, white ash, and black tupelo.
