Urban & Community Forestry Plan Update
The city’s Urban & Community Forestry Plan, adopted in 2007, is due for an update. Therefore, the City Council has established a goal of updating the Plan following an update to the State of the Urban Forest Report in 2022. This report, first prepared in 2009, contains baseline data on forest health, including the number of street trees in Lake Oswego and the community’s overall tree canopy cover, among other metrics. Staff and a consultant with Parametrix began updating the report in 2021 and presented their initial findings during the Oswego Lake Watershed Council’s Tree Summit last fall. For more information on this project, please see the Urban and Community Forestry webpage at www.ci.oswego.or.us/planning/urban-community-forestry, or contact the Planning Department at 503-635-0290.
