Lisbon Management Plan _20.pdf File Size:9MB |
Abstract
This plan was developed to assist the city in managing its urban forest, including budgeting and future planning. Trees bring numerous benefits to a community, and sound management helps leaders take advantage of these benefits. Management is especially important now considering the serious threats posed by forest pests like the emerald ash borer (EAB). EAB is an invasive insect imported from Eastern Asia on wood shipping crates that kills all species of ash trees except mountain ash. With proper planning and management, the costs of removing dead and dying trees can be extended over years, mitigating public safety issues.
