<br />Project or Equipment Description and Justification
<br />Please provide a general project description and include the cast allocation methodology if
<br />more than one funding source is requested:
<br />The tree budget will be utilized to fund replacement trees for those that were removed
<br />for a variety of reasons which could be due to safety, insects and diseases problems
<br />which could include Emerald Ash Borer, vandalism, etc. Deciduous trees (with
<br />leaves} will be 2" caliper while coniferous trees (with needles) will be 5-6ft tall.
<br />Deciduous species include oak, honeylocust, linden, maple, catalpa, among others well
<br />suited for our climate. Likewise, coniferous species will include pinion pine, ponderosa
<br />pine, Austrian pine, southwestern white pine, scotch pine, white fir and spruce.
<br />Please describe why this project is needed, how it supports City -wide goals and objectives.
<br />what realistic options or alternatives have been considered, and what payback. or return on
<br />investment, has been calculated;
<br />The City of Louisville's urban forest is an asset in constant flux. Every year older, over-
<br />mature trees decline and eventually die, trees are lost due to construction, insect and
<br />disease problems continue to place trees in jeopardy, and vandalism and accidents
<br />continue to take their toll on our urban forest inventory_ By planting trees every year,
<br />the City insures that the urban forest's population is maintained. Additionally, new
<br />areas are identified for tree planting. Street trees are a tremendous asset to the
<br />community by providing shade, noise reduction, pollution reduction, and provide
<br />aesthetic value.
<br />Please provide a description of any grants and/or other revenue associated with this project
<br />and the ongoing operational and !maintenance costs associated with this project_:
<br />Replacement trees are planted in areas where irrigation currently exists, so ongoing
<br />maintenance is somewhat minimal.
