Latrobe City Council is in the process of developing an urban forest strategy.
The Urban Forest Strategy is a long-term plan to manage, protect, and grow the collection of trees and shrubs within a city. It aims to increase canopy cover, improve biodiversity, and mitigate urban heat effects by enhancing public streets and green spaces in residential areas. Key goals include providing more shade, public amenity and green spaces for the community to enjoy, cooling cities, building climate resilience, and improving community well-being.
We are seeking community feedback to help inform us of what the community wants to see in the strategy. We would like your input into what you think the issues and opportunities are for canopy trees with the townships, and what are the community’s priorities for an urban forest.
