(Boston Orange) 昆士市3月29日呼籲市民申請在自家門前種樹,可洽該市自然資源局 (Department of Natural Resources)。
昆士市長柯奇 (Tom Koch) 曾在市府預算中撥款40萬元,種植新的街道樹木,因此一直未能滿足居民請求種樹的申請,名單於是每年重建。
最近昆士市自然資源局將與公共工程局合作,正在翻新並重新沿街種樹,而且看起來可以應付額外的種植工作。
昆士市自然資源局局長Dave Murphy表示,「很感謝柯奇市長和市議會持續支持我們在鄰里內種樹的工作,過去4年來,我們已經每年種了500顆新樹,希望今秋也能種到同樣數目,就看預算如何。
自然資源局將調查每個要求地點,以確認會影響種植樹種及地點可能引起的任何問題,包括了解地下水電設施,頭頂管線,鄰近樹木,視線,以及其他考慮。自然資源團隊會根據這些因數來挑選最適合的種類及地點,以給這些樹最好的生長環境。
獲選為下一輪種植的樹木種類,將包括秋焰風、甜樹膠、日本丁香、阿姆斯壯紅楓、東方紫荊、雪雁櫻桃、千層楓和黑膠等,將種在公園和墓地中。
居民查詢可洽617-376-1251,獲發電郵給Mike Caslinelli到mcasinelli@quincyma.gov來索取新樹。
City Compiling Street Tree
Planting Requests
QUINCY, MA – March 29, 2023
The Department of Natural
Resources is encouraging residents
that
want a tree planted in front of their property to contact the department and
get on a future
planting
list.
For
the past number of years, Mayor Koch has appropriated $400,000 in the City
budget for the
planting
of new street trees. As a result, the list of requests from residents has been
consistently
fulfilled
and rebuilt every year. The Department of Natural Resources will be working
with the
Department
of Public Works to plant along streets that have been recently renovated but
will likely
have
the ability to accommodate additional requests.
“We
are grateful to Mayor Koch and the City Council for their ongoing support of
our efforts for tree
planting
in our neighborhoods,” said Natural Resources Commissioner Dave Murphy. “We
have
planted
more than 500 new trees every year for the past four years and hope to do the
same this Fall,
pending
the budget process.”
The
Department of Natural Resources will investigate each requested location to
identify any issues
that
would influence the species planted and specific location of planting. Issues
investigated include
underground
utilities, overhead wires, adjacent trees, sight lines, and other
considerations. The DNR
team
will select the most appropriate species and location based on those factors in
order to give the
tree
the best opportunity to thrive.
Species
selected for planting in the next round of planting include: Autumn Blaze
Maple, Sweet Gum,
Japanese
Lilac, Armstrong Red Maple, Eastern Red Bud, and Snow Goose Cherry. Paperbark
Maple and
Black
Gum will be planted in parks and cemeteries.
Residents
can call (617) 376-1251 to request a new tree or email Mike Casinelli at
