TREE INVENTORY
An inventory of Arlington's street trees was conducted in 2017 to determine the number of town trees, their species, size, and condition.
The tree inventory is updated as trees are planted or removed.
The tree inventory is used by the Town Tree Warden for tree maintenance and management.
See the Public Tree Inventory Map.
