Tacoma is taking a tree planting effort to a new level trying to flood at least one part of the city with new trees.
If you drive on East Wright Avenue in Tacoma’s McKinley Hill neighborhood you’ll see some large trees, but you’ll also see stretches with no trees at all. It’s that type of situation that the city of Tacoma wants to change.
“There’s certain spots that have a lot of trees and there are certain spots that really don’t,” Boyne said. “Partnerships are key to the success of our long-range efforts to make Tacoma a more livable city for all,” said Mayor Victoria Woodards. “I look forward to seeing what we can do through the Community Trees Program with the support of our partners at the Tacoma Tree Foundation.”
