Grow and Defend Our Tacoma Tree Canopy! Read this petition:
If you agree, please sign quickly – City Council Dec 5th meeting deciding on first step to update the current 1927 tree ordinance.At 20%, Tacoma has the smallest tree canopy of any city in the Puget Sound area! The City Council promised us in 2009 and again in 2019 to increase our tree canopy to 30% by 2030. We are not on track and no increase has been achieved. This is now urgent as new development threatens our existing 20% tree canopy. We ask the city to honor its commitment and deliver what was promised!
Please consider planting more trees.
