An application needs to be completed and approved by the Clarks Green Shade Tree Commission before a tree is planted, removed, or pruned along the Borough right-of-way.
The Clarks Green Shade Tree Commission is interested in you..... and wants to help you by providing FREE or LOW-COST quality shade trees and assistance in planting them on your property!
Trees provide an endless benefit to our community! Did you know that trees.....Provide Shade - which reduces heating and cooling costs and saves you $$$; Take up water that would otherwise end up in your basement; Redue storm-water runoff - which could overload the storm-water sewer and carry pollutants to the Chesapeake Bay; Add approximately 1% to the value of your property (for every mature tree); Cut down noise pollution and add to neighborhood aesthetics; Reduce heat and glare along streets and encourage slower driving speeds.
You can help us meet the growing need for trees in our borough ---and gain all the benefits listed above -- by getting involved in one of the following ways: Plant trees in your own yard; Help us help others plant in November or April; Join us for our monthly meetings (watch the sign board); Support our work at Borough Council Meetings; Spread the word about trees in Clarks Green.
If you are interested in a tree this Fall -- free trees planted in street right of ways and low-cost trees to be planted anywhere on your property -- contact us ASAP.
