RESIDENTS ENCOURAGE TO PLANT STREET TREES

The City of Southlake and Keep Southlake Beautiful are kicking off the city's Street Tree Program, through which residents can purchase trees for half-price if they are then planted in the right-of-way. A total of 40 residents will be able to participate in the program, buying one of four varieties of trees -- Lacebark Elm, Cedar Elm, Bur Oak, and Chinese Pistache. Each is a 2 to 2½ inch caliper tree, and are available through the Street Trees program for just $95 (the city pays the other half of the purchase price). The Street Trees then will be planted on the right-of-way of the property owner by Green Oaks Nursery. For more information, call Community Services Coordinator Emily Galpin at (817) 481-1549.
