Davey Resource Group, Inc. been selected by the City of Coshocton to conduct a comprehensive inventory and assessment of an estimated 4,800 trees, stumps, and planting sites on public streets and city parks. The project is part of on-going efforts within the City to better manage trees and assure the community has a healthy, sustainable urban forest.
A team of professional arborists from the urban forestry consulting company will be in the city to inspect and map all the public street trees. The arborist will be assessing the condition and stability of each tree, looking for any damaged or dead material to be removed, and evaluating any signs of decay or disease.
“Managing tree risk is a primary objective in completing these assessments,” said Lizzie Sords, a certified arborist with Davey who is supervising the inventory project in the city. “We will identify any pruning or removal needs in addition to providing detailed computer mapping of all the trees to aid the city in the future planting, planning, and management of their urban forest resources.”
Davey Resource Group, Inc’s arborists will use handheld computers loaded with information and aerial photographs from existing Geographic Information System (GIS) to mark the location and record specific details of each of the trees.
