Trees for Euclid

Planting trees does a world of good! Not only do trees offer beauty to and garden, they can save the home owner money. Properly planted trees can cool your home thereby saving money on air conditioning. Consult a landscape or an arborist to select the proper tree and, more importantly the proper location to plant your tree. Chris Grant, our City Arborist can suggest
help for your tree planting questions.

Planting trees is not simply the home owners choice: The City of Euclid plants dozens of trees every year. Most are to replace diseased and damaged trees, or, trees that have been removed for sewer/road work. The City is a long time winner of the Tree City USA designation meaning that we appreciate the value planting and maintaining trees.

As a member of the Shade Tree Commission, I have a great interest in planting trees along our public right of ways. To that end, Matt Sarver, another member of the Shade Tree Commission
have set up an Shade Tree Ad Hoc Committee dedicated to planting trees along the marginal, and in the "infield" areas of the I90/Rt highway interchange. We are currently experimenting
by planting seedlings along the marginal near 260th. If all goes well, and, they take" we will work to obtain ODOT's permission to do a more extensive planting next spring.
