Can I choose what type of tree will be installed?
The Village typically provides homeowners with several choices of species for installation in the Village-owned parcel adjacent to their property. These species are chosen based upon appropriateness for parkway installation, viability of the species, availability, proven success, and diversity for the entire area. While you may not be given the ability to choose a specific species, you are typically given a choice
from among several quality species.
