Urban Forestry
Urban forestry is a critical part of the urban infrastructure. It adds to a healthy and sustainable environment by protecting, maintaining, and planting trees. Salt Lake City’s forest is much more than a collection of trees. The city’s forest directly influences environmental quality, public safety, and city revenues. Today, there are 91,221 street and park trees in the City. Trees can lower air conditioning and heating costs by 30 to 40%. When shaded by trees, the irrigation requirements of turf can be lowered by 20% helping conserve the state’s precious water resource.
