City gets grant for tree inventory
BLOOMINGTON — Morton Arboretum’s Community Trees Program has awarded the Bloomington Park, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department a $7,100 federal forestry grant, which will help the city update a street tree inventory done in winter 2017 with help of a similar grant.
The arboretum awarded more than $170,000 in federal forestry grants to Illinois communities looking to fund tree-related projects such as tree planting, obtaining a tree inventory and developing or updating a tree protection and preservation ordinance or a tree management plan. The federal grants are administered by the arboretum on behalf of the U.S. Forest Service Department of Agriculture’s Urban and Community Forestry Program in partnership with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.
