Brockport Tree Board Mission

The mission of the Tree Board includes the following goals:

South Ave. Historic Beech Tree

Assess the current state of our public trees through a computer based inventory of all trees on village property (completed 9/06)

Identify tree species suitable for our area and appropriate for the various kinds of sites in an urban community.

Emphasize diversity in future tree plantings to avoid a monoculture of species.

Identify and preserve the particularly fine specimens of older trees that we currently have in our community.

Promote public awareness of the importance of our urban forest through education, community plantings and maintenance of new trees.

Attain the National Arbor Day Foundation’s status as a Tree City USA and make Brockport a “village arboretum.”
