Maintain and enhance urban forest

Measure

The County will maintain and enhance the urban forest to provide shading that improves energy conservation in adjacent dwellings and reduces the urban heat island effect (UHIE).

Status of Implementation

​Sacramento County's Planning and Environmental Review Division coordinates directly with the Sacramento Tree Foundation to direct funds for tree planting at various locations throughout the County. Future opportunities for partnership include identification of suitable tree planting locations in Environmental Justice Communities and organizing tree planting and maintenance events with community-based organizations.
