“urban green spaces are fundamental components of a city’s infrastructure - green spaces enrich the lives of city dwellers in many ways, offering places to watch wildlife, to renew from the stresses of daily life, and to provide many environmental functions (i.e., minimize flooding) - evidence shows that urban green spaces reduce anxiety and stress, even help to lower crime and violence - however, many people only equate green spaces with public parks and other publicly accessible spaces - citizens forget about green spaces in their own backyards, the street right-of-ways and other public, private and semi-public places - urban green spaces are all around us and if we look hard enough we will be amazed at what they have to offer - unfortunately, many of these hidden green spaces are under threat of disappearing…….” - - the seattle audubon society

“Seattle City Ordinance #90047 requires that all persons who prune and/or remove privately maintained trees within the public right-of-way area obtain a street use permit. The City Arborist office issues the permit (Note: a privately maintained tree is defined as any tree found growing within the public right-of-way area that has not been planted or is being maintained by the City of Seattle).

To obtain a permit, download, print and fill out the request form and return it to the City Arborist office. MISSING TEXT HERE The Arborist Office can help you locate the names and addresses of those neighbors if you are uncertain of who to contact.”
