Lexington issued RFP for an Urban Forest Master Plan. The DPW with Lexington Tree Committee will provide oversight on the project. A project oversight committee of individuals representing a range of town boards, committees, and groups will provide diverse perspectives on urban forestry planning.

The Town seeks to develop an Urban Forest Master Plan outlining steps for ensuring a healthy, diverse urban forest. This will include steps for planting, removal, pruning and other maintenance practices to ensure a safe and vibrant urban forest. The plan will help set goals for canopy cover,
species diversity and help determine funding needs for various tasks associated with maintaining an urban forest.
