NEIGHBlig It. <br /> OR <br /> WOODS <br /> TIME LINE FOR NEIGHBORWOODS ACTIVITIES <br /> 1. Canvas your neighborhood for people interested in planting trees in front <br /> of their home. Write down their names, phone #(s), species of tree(s) <br /> requested, and the number of each tree. (copy of this form is within this <br /> folder) <br /> 2. Send the above information to the Urban Forester (best to keep a copy). <br /> 3. You'll be notified when the City has the trees available for planting. <br /> (The tree nurseries will have them available any where from November to <br /> February) <br /> 4. We agree upon a planting date - any day of the week, during daylight <br /> hours. <br /> 5. A few days later the City prints up the notification letters for you to <br /> deliver to your neighbors letting them know when the planting is going to <br /> occur. The notice should give them a week or two for your neighbors to <br /> fit the planting into their schedule.(sample copy in the folder) <br /> 6. About the time you deliver the notices, you can also mark the planting <br /> spots with a small white dot (paint supplied by the City). Then notify the <br /> Urban Forester that the sites are ready to be checked for utility conflicts. <br /> 7. The City shows up with a truck load of trees, stakes, and tools as per the <br /> date and time as decided in the above lines 4 & 5. The city personnel <br /> will help until all the trees are planted. See the note called "Planting <br /> Day" for the order of events. <br /> 8. The City will send out reminders to all the people who planted trees <br /> letting them know when to start watering trees (during the summer <br /> drought). Other information will also be sent out in a timely manner. <br /> outlinez.nbw <br />
