Another year of tree trimming in TIFA District

Another year of tree trimming in TIFA District

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI (12/7/21) –  Work crews were spotted again this past Fall trimming the trees located in the right-of-way, between the sidewalk and curb, from Eton Street (where the project left off last year) down to Amherst Street.

The TIFA Board budgeted $25,000, as in previous years, to be spent toward this project in an effort to help the city meet its goal of maintaining a 5-year tree trimming cycle.  This investment by TIFA made it possible to realize the maintenance of 250 trees.

Each year, a section of the TIFA District is completed for as much as the funds will cover, then continue the next year where the previous year ended.  This is done in an effort to provide for safety and adequate visibility for our neighborhood residents, public infrastructure workers and guests.

This annual project is done in cooperation with and supervised by the city’s Department of Public Works, utilizing the city’s tree trimming contractor.
