YNDC and City of Youngstown Begin Tree Inventories in Crandall Park and Boulevard Park Neighborhoods

Wednesday, September 28, 2016

On Tuesday, September 27, 2016, YNDC and the City of Youngstown began tree inventories in the Boulevard Park and Crandall Park neighborhoods. The tree inventories are being completed by Davey Tree

through a collaborative project between the Western Reserve Land Conservancy, YNDC, and City of Youngstown. The project is funded by The Raymond John Wean Foundation.

Davey Tree is conducting an inventory and inspection of every tree in the public right of way in both neighborhoods. The information will result in a tree management plan that can be utilized by the City of Youngstown, YNDC, neighborhood groups, and other community organizations to remove, maintain, and plant trees. Crandall Park and Boulevard Park were selected as the neighborhoods through an open competition in which ten neighborhoods applied. The inventory and tree management plans are anticipated to be complete by early December 2016.
