DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI (11/29/17) – Crews began work today trimming trees along the neighborhood streets in the TIFA District. Only those trees located in the right-of-way, between the sidewalk and curb, will be affected.
As in previous years, the TIFA Board has again authorized $25,000 to be spent toward this project. “Our city’s goal is to keep trees on a 5-year trimming cycle, so we try to do what we can to help meet that goal here in the TIFA District,” said TIFA Administrator Carmine Oliverio. “The city does its best to stay on track with the limited resources it has, so every little bit helps.”
Planning of the project was done in cooperation with the city’s Department of Public Works, utilizing the city’s tree trimming contractor.
The target area for this year is the neighborhood South of Pennie Street, just East of Gulley Road.
