Trees are an important element of streetscape design that bring vitality, vibrancy, and a sense of well-being to the urban environment. They create a pedestrian friendly experience that removes pollutants from the air and soil, reduces the urban heat island effect, provide shade and natural filtration of rainwater, among other benefits.
Tree Canopy Grants are designed to supplement or match funds for properties within the DDA (Downtown Development Authority) that contribute to creating a robust urban tree canopy by enhancing existing or creating new planting areas. Grants are provided on a reimbursement basis after project completion. All projects receiving grants and reimbursement agreements from the DDA must demonstrate alignment with the goals and priorities of Experience Downtown. Grant funding decisions are made by the 11-member board of the DDA, which meets monthly on the second Tuesday of each month.
To inquire about grant or TIF opportunities for your business, contact SUSAN EDMONDSON or call 719-886-0088.
