Public consultation: Dunnville downtown street tree planting design

Haldimand County is inviting community members to view the proposed street tree planting design for the downtown core of Dunnville including portions of Queen Street, Bridge Street, Lock Street East and Chestnut Street. Existing street trees, while enjoyed by the downtown for decades, are limited in surviving numbers, placement, consistency and expected lifespan.

This new, proactive tree establishment and replacement plan incorporates ideas generated by the local community and will ensure downtown areas remain beautiful for years to come by applying the “right tree, right place” principle and using new technologies to integrate trees within hardscapes. Implementation is expected to begin in early summer 2022.

For further information and to provide your comments please contact Adam Chamberlin, Project Manager, Forestry at (905) 318-5932 ext. 6512 or achamberlin@haldimandcounty.on.ca before Friday, April 8, 2022.
