City of Linden to become a Tree City USA community

The City of Linden is looking to become the first Tree City USA community in Northeast Texas. At the regular October City Council meeting, the City Council decided to pursue certification, following more than 3,400 communities that have made the commitment to becoming a Tree City USA. To achieve Tree City USA status, you must meet four core standards of sound municipal forestry management: maintaining a tree board or department (the City of Linden’s Park’s Department will be in charge of this program), having a community tree ordinance, spend at least $2 per capita on urban forestry and celebrate Arbor Day (we will celebrate Friday, November 4th). After our Arbor Day celebration, we should receive our certification by December.
