Urban Forest Strategy 
The glorious urban forest defines the character and appeal of the Town of Walkerville.
Council undertook a Township-wide street tree audit to understand the current status of the urban forest, which provided the basis for the Urban Forest Strategy. Through this process, experts in tree management were engaged to inform the strategy and ensure the targets developed were measurable and relevant.
Council believes that trees form a crucial part of the Township’s identity and stresses the importance of its management now and into the future.
The Urban Forest Strategy highlights the challenges that are present in managing the urban forest and has provided a framework to ensure its survival and betterment into the future.
Administration worked closely with Seed Consulting in putting the strategy together to balance aspirational goals and operational initiatives over the strategy timeline.
Council's first Urban Forest Strategy was endorsed on the 15 July 2019 as per resolution CNC5/19-20.
